FullRiver DC or HGL under bonnet

Hi All,

I was going to buy a fullriver Deep Cycle (DC115-12B) for running fridge and accessories for the patrol as the aux battery.

When I rang the battery people after I told them it would be in the engine bay under the bonnet they said the DC battery would not survive the heat and to use a HGL battery (HGL120-12B) instead.

Anyone have an opinion (a useful one) on this? I'm told the HGL has deep cycle abilities so running it down with the fridge will not damage it. Anyone using the HGL for this purpose?

I assume they basically will run for the same time, have pretty much the same abilities, but the HGL can stand the heat more being that it is a liquid rather than a gel base.

Thanks.

Chris.
