I'm in the market for a new battery, not sure why my old battery gave up the ghost, the 6 aux lights and and 2 subs probably didn't do anything to help the situation... Any ways as I was wondering if anyone has a brand or model of batterie that they could recommended. Oh I'm planning on adding. Winch down the line...
Thanks y'all

Are you looking for just occasional winch use? Like to get yourself, or someone else, unstuck and not a lot of repeated winching with little charge time? If so the Sears Platinum P4 would serve you well as it's designed to handle deep discharge better than "normal" starting batteries. It's the same as the Odyssey pc1500

Another thing to allow for is multiple connections. Most batteries don't do well with high current loads on the side terminals (Optima says don't do it), the Platinum/Odyssey batteries being an exception, both side top terminals support full current draw.
