Good call, Terry. I use Deka AGMs and they are on year 6, but you can't beat a 4 year replacement warranty. Who did you get them through?

You fried that battery with the battery tender. DO NOT use the tender on your new AGM batteries because you will fry them too. Get yourself a good quality proper charger to handle AGM's.
