Re: 12V racing battery recommendations
I actually just posted about this topic on my FB page. I replaced my Optima with a Big Crank ETX30L AGM this season. Weight is 24 lbs and is half the price of a Braille B3121.

Check out AntiGravity's line of batteries.
I found out about them from some off road friends and they are really rugged and dependable. And they are extremely light weight. A couple of my customers have switched to them with great results. https://shop.antigravitybatteries.co...extreme-power/

Re: 12V racing battery recommendations
If it's feasible, I'd suggest being able to swap back (quickly) from whatever you get to your tow vehicle battery. The battery gods and Murphy get together and take their life usually a few rounds in. :-)
