Frank mentions this battery as 000 915 105 AD in one post (while the battery was en route), then after he received the battery he refers to it as 000 915 105 CE. In both instances he says its 61 AH. According to the linked the table the CE is 92 AH - though for comparison I'd like to see RC listed - I assume 92 AH is how many amps per 20 hours (is that how it works?). I know RC is how many minutes at 25 amps. Not sure which battery Frank actually installed. Then of course, Loren is referring to a CC which is 68 AH. Are all the batteries listed in the linked table AGM deep cycles? There are 11 batteries listed. Specifically the AD, CC, and the CE are all the same in W and H, and only L varies, with 246, 278, 353 for the AD, CC, and CE respectively. There is also the AK with L of 393 and AH of 110, and a 95 AH, the AH model, which is listed with the same dimensions as the CE. Lots of choices, and just as much confusion.

I had a 100 AH battery from Westmarine once, and it was huge and heavy.
