Best Battery Sizes for 342FV

glshoemaker

Sadly, my 2005 342FV's current batteries are now heading for the last round-up.  I'd prefer just to replace all, including start-up batteries and house batteries.  Not sure if previous owner used the "correct size and number" preferred for best performance, and I can't find any specs that identifies same.  Suggestions for what size and type batteries I need as replacements are sincerely welcome!

24's for your starting and 31's for the house

I have 31's for all 4.  Part of it will depend on the mounting in place for them.  If you have boxes or trays you'll be limited to what they can hold.

If only you needed these a month or so ago - West Marine had 25 and 20% sales. I spent over $700 still for 3 new AGM’s

That’s why I buy batteries at Walmart or Costco. Saves some coin!

And you get what you pay for also. Walmart and Costco had no advantage on price for the types I bought.
