[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 1020323, member: 82"] My batteries last anything from 7 - 10 years, but then they are permanently connected to an intelligent charger that is designed for this. I think my Merc battery is even older than this, pretty sure it is more than 12 years old. The intelligent charger delivers pulses, which is a great factor in breaking down sulphating. My Inverter batteries are 100A 12v each in parallel - not my chosen method of connection but the AC Inverter is a 12v one, and they are 7 years plus+ each, also connected to an intelligent maintenance charger. A 60A battery is definitely too small for the Jeep, you need at least 80A or thereabouts. -F_D [/QUOTE]
