Frequently Asked Questions: Marine Battery

What factors should I consider when choosing marine batteries for different applications?

Choosing a marine battery shouldn’t have to totally rack your brain. You’ll first want to consider the battery type that suits your needs – whether flooded, AGM, or gel. Size and weight matter, too, so you’ll need to measure the space on your boat. Another factor to consider is whether or not the battery will mesh well with your boat’s charging system. Naturally, budget is always a factor to consider when shopping for a marine battery, but luckily, Sam’s Club has a handful of options to fit your price range.

Can you provide information on the advantages of deep cycle and lithium batteries?

Deep cycle batteries offer advantages like sustained energy and a longer cycle lifespan. With approximately 2,000 cycles, they outperform traditional lead-acid batteries and are well-suited for use in RVs, where their compact size and lightweight nature complement other essentials like engine oil, tools, vehicle accessories, and battery chargers.

Lithium-ion batteries have an extended cycle life, are quick charging and lightweight in construction, and are environmentally friendly, making them versatile and widely used across different devices and vehicles.

Are there recommendations for battery maintenance and storage?

A good general rule of thumb for marine batteries is to avoid storing them in a discharged state. If it’s been a while since you’ve used it, give it a charge to prolong its lifespan. Another helpful tip is to keep your batteries cool – storing them around room temperature to prevent losing charge capacity, especially in scorching heat above 100 °F. To make your deep-cycle marine batteries last longer, keep their voltage at or above a 50% state of charge.

What warranty and support services are offered with marine batteries?

It depends on which battery you choose. Most of our batteries offer a one-year or 18-month warranty, depending on if you’re purchasing a deep cycle marine battery or a lithium marine battery. A handful of batteries are also covered by our merchandise satisfaction guarantee, meaning you can return the item with no hassle, regardless of time. If you end up needing to replace a battery, make sure to check the length of the warranty and your purchase date so you don’t miss the return window.

What is your return or exchange policy for marine batteries?

Marine batteries are covered by Sam’s Club’s membership and merchandise satisfaction guarantee. You can return the item if you run into any issues with your purchase or exchange it.
