Hello,
I need two new deep cycle batteries for my trolling motor. I'm looking at the group 27 Bass Pro Deep Cycle AGM. What's the feedback on them? I'm looking at Bass Pro because they are close to the house, and not sure if there is others battery places that are close by (other than Walmart and Advance Auto).

Have you tried Batteries Plus? The Duracell AGM or X2 would be identical to what you would get at BPS.
Duracell AGM at Sam’s is about the best deal.
If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
nothing else matters.

I just looked, there is a Batteries Plus by us and the Duracell Ultra AGM has a better warranty for the same price. Thanks for the heads up.

I guess I should feel lucky, I got 9 years out of my group 27 "Never Starts" from Walmart.

Walmart never had a problem with the Everstarts
THIS^^^. There’s a Walmart in every town of you should need to replace a bad battery.

JUNK! Don't buy. I bought 2 many years ago when they were "on sale" for the spring fishing classic and man they didn't last a year. Exide batteries are thumbs down also. My dealer put 2 new trolling batteries in a couple years ago and they won't hold a charge. Funny thing, I have some everstart walmart batteries and I haven't put a charge on them in forever and they're going on 5 years, and I put my meter on them the other day and they were STILL over 12v. Ya can't beat that!
The X-2 AGM battery at Batteries Plus has a 4 year warranty and with their 10% off online promo code might be another option. Good luck.
I have used the Cabela's Advanced Angler group 27 batteries for many years without a problem and I think these from BPS may be the same battery. The Cabela's batteries came in a box from Universal Power so that was the supplier. Cabela's would usually have them $50 off at least once a year so I would.start looking.for.them to go on sale after four years and then buy. My current set of batteries will be 3 years old in March but when it comes time to think about replacing them, I will consider the ones from BPS.
