Thanks for the rapid and informative response... Yea I was happy with the performance and longevity of the original GEL batteries... Was concerned over the last few years but never had an issue starting even after being on anchor overnight (w/o running generator).... Boat is in the water 12 mo/yr with chargers on all the time. Wanted to replace with same brand, think they are Excide/Sonnenschein, but can't find a source... Looking at Deka Gel....
