Why did you buy golf cart batteries when they were so inferior.

You can keep your lead acid batteries for a while. Right next to your collection of incandescent light bulbs and DVD player.

My Golf Cart Batteries require an ounce or two of water in each cell when I check them once a year.

They are not declining, and I use them all year.

I don't have shore power.

I do plan to replace the incandescent running lights on my boat before I do too much more night sailing.

Maybe in another year or so since I've only had the boat since 2011. V Berth lamps are incandescent also. Not sure when I will replace them since I rarely use them more than a minute or two at a time.
