FVP Marine Batteries

[dave potts]

I'm in the market for a couple of new trolling motor batteries for my bass boat.  I went to Menards in Columbia to see if they still sold Exide batteries which I had been using and had good luck with.  I noticed they no longer sold Exide brand and now sell FVP brand.  I've never heard of this brand.

Anyone ever heard of or used them?  If so, how were they?

The FVP batteries are Exide, just from a different distributor.   Probably from the warehouse in Sedalia.   I have 3 of them in my boat and they have performed just fine.

Thanks Wrench.  I was wondering if that may have been the case.
