I bought two Duracell AGM group 24 batteries from Batteries+ for about $198 each. The Optima yellow top batteries lasted about 8 years. Life on a trickle charger is good.

My suggestion would be 2 AGM batteries, but at a minimum would stay away from batteries marketed as marine starting or even marine dual purpose as those batteries are really only needed with very large engines. (Ref: Pbase-MarineHowTo) One of the best IMO is Odyssey Battery which used to be available as Sears DieHard Platinum. Odyssey states a 3-10 year service life. As I am on year 13 on the battery I use most often, I'll be sure to eventually replace it with the same.
