    Yes you will and you should use group 31 at best and 29 second option. get the highest reserve capacity you can find.

    If you got the coin and the room, check these out. You'll pull crank baits for 8+ hours easily with the 220AH batteries. Group 31's aren't half that.

    Went by Sam's in South Haven today to check on some AGM batteries. Duracell brand. Look suspiciously like US Batts. The 31 series AGM said 105 Amp Hours. Didn't see anything listed for reserve capacity. The Duracell wet cell, 31 series said 225 minutes @23amps. Sam's has the bad boy golf cart batts also.

    225 should be the number of minutes it would hold up under a constant 25 amp load.
