I know what you mean. However, I've never been a fan of the 4D and 8D batteries. The more I look at it, the AGM 902 or L16s look like a good match for my needs. I am also used to banks of 6v batteries since that is what I have had on my past two sailboats.

Then again, I could just throw in some VRLA wet cells 8Ds and call it good. ("throw" may not be the right term however).
