Most likely you could use the 78 series as well . More cranking amps .

Also keep it charged . AGM dont like to be discharge to low . Most auto battery's don't like it anyway , AGM seems not to like it more .

With all that said its still hard to beat a wet cell for forgiveness and performance as well as price .
Duracell are, I believe, made by East Penn/ Deka. I just bought a set of Duracell golf cart batteries and they were East Penn. Good brand.
