They discuss the good and bad qualities of Lead Acid, AGM, and Lithium as well as what to look for in a Lithium battery. Power Queen sent them some batteries to test out and Herby and Maddie will tell you their honest opinion on who should buy these batteries and who should buy a different type of battery.
