Thanks all

A semi-deep cycle battery will do both jobs adequately. I use a Besco N70EX one in my vehicle. I got it through my local Bridgestone dealer, about $160.

Actually its called an Exide "Extreme" and the last one went well for 8 years.

Thanks bee utey so you were using it as a starting battery thanks, the mrs is picking one up in the morning. does any one know were i can in bris and how much thanks
