I need to replace a 10 year old Diehard lead/acid battery.

I can get a Deka AGM battery for the same price as a Diehard lead/acid battery.

I had an AGM battery on a motorcycle that lasted many years before selling the bike. I like the idea of not having to check water levels in the cells.

Does anybody here know anything about Deka batteries? Reviews are good but you never know what's what on the internet. Conflicting information abounds about whether or not an AGM battery can be placed on a standard Battery Tender.

Should I stick with Diehard? I think Diehard is just a name now since Sears sold it off. Maybe not the Diehard quality of old?

I know I can pick up a junkyard battery for $20 but I'm not going that route this time.
