Ritar AGM Deep cycle anygood ?

How cheap are they ??

If you want years of trouble free use, then spend a couple of extra bucks and get a "name" brand..

Mostly ( but not always ) you still get what you pay for !!

I had a quick look at their website and yes they are your run of the mill chinese battery maker. Nothing wrong with that however given they are somewhat an untried brand there will be a risk associated with buying from them. I don't believe you need to take risks when brands like Fullriver and others are very affordable and proven. You need to be more specific and outline what size battery you want and the application, for example do you need a dedictated Deep Cycle or a general purpose hybrid deep cycle battery will do.

For example Fullriver 100AH AGM batteries with a 2 year warranty are available for around $300.

Hope this helps...

I am assured by a reputable dealer (Val Rigoli from Fridge and Solar) that Ritar batteries are identical to Alco, just different branding.

I have been running a 120 AH Alco (bought from Fridge and Solar for more than your price) in parrallel with a Fullriver 90 AH for a couple of years now. No problems at all. At the price I believe it is a good buy.

Sure there is a small risk attached to buying a lesser known brand. But just because it is cheap does not always mean it is no good.
