Any recommendations on new batteries to purchase ? Stay wet acid or go AGM ? We will be doing a mix of campground camping ( full hookups ) with occasional boondocking . A lot of brands to choose from but I think only 3 or 4 manufacturers .

I'm staying with wet on my boat for now. The Interstate from Costco didn't last, I'm trying a duracell from Sam's club. There are 2 batteries so I replaced the weaker one this year, I'll do the other next.
I really like the digital capacity meters, great tool for $20. On my boat new one had 100%, the replaced one was at about 50%, and the spare is around 75-80%
