batteries

Costco is where I get my marine batteries
I see costco does have marine batteries but I'm not sure if 2 X 12v CCA 675, RC 180 deep cycle are OK as starting batteries for my 6 cyl diesel the 2 X 6v in series golf cart deep cycle look good for the house

Pretty sure they have a few different selections at the store..... They definitely do not show all they have online.
 
Marine 12 volt and 6 volt are seasonal at Costco. I was just in the Langley location and they had neither. They only stock for the spring/summer.
 
I'll second Polar Batteries on Boundary. Never steered me wrong. I've been purchasing there between one thing or another for quite a few years now.
 
I’ve seen these at Costco in the past.

Anyone tried them?

I have one of these Optima batteries on my boat as my battery #2 (it was the only one that would fit in my compartment that had enough CCA to start my motor). I alternate with a Costco group 27 marine starting/deep cycle battery (battery #1), using battery #1 one day then battery #2 the next time out. Each battery will start my main easily (200 h.p Optimax). I replaced my Optima battery after 10 years even though it was still working as new.

Phil's batteries in Surry has series 31 ,925CCA,180 RC for $115 Northern Energy battery- I can't find a review for N Energy-anyone have experience with them?
 
They used to , try the Cdn tire (or call) on Steveston hwy in the ironwood mall, full service there
not impressed with Cdn tire in Richmond-couldn't do a load test (load should be 1/2 of the CCA for 15 sec) or test 6 volt (done with a hydrometer). Phil's battery in Surrey did a load test and OK prices
