Subject:Best Starter Battery?
From:Brian Cirulnick

Hello Volks!

With all the talk of Batteries on the list, thought I'd ask -- And assuming
that money is no object (yeah, right, but let's dream for a minute), what is
the best overall "Starter" battery? Could I use a sealed "deep cycle" battery
as a regular "start" battery? I've got a regular Vanagon, not a Westy, so I
only need one battery, but I live in the NYC metro area, where it's HOT and
humid in the summer, freezing in the winter, and rains in the seasons between.
I need something that's gonna give me plenty of power in any weather condition
- while also allowing me reserve for when I need to run lights without the
engine running.

Anybody care to recommend a brand/type?
