probably best value for buck would be the wal mart ones. make sure your charging them using a decent trickle charger and you will be okay.

My experience is that Walmart and Academy batteries last about the same.....26 to 30 months and they need replacing.

In Baton Rouge I buy mine from Wholesale battery. Basically looks like Exide battery for $10 than the same type of battery at Academy or Wal-mart. I get about 3 to 4 years out of them.
