House Battery Question

Hello all,
I'm looking to use this AGM car battery as my house battery with a battery isolater and inverter. I will use some marine terminals to attach the electrical. I'm hoping to attach it to a solar setup in the future. Any issues you guys might foresee with this setup?

Thanks!

It looks that's a starting battery. You want to use a deep-cycle battery as a house battery.

Agree. Look for a “marine/RV” battery.

Some marine/RV battery's construction is between a starting battery and a deep cycle......They have plate construction such the they can deliver some CCA for starting outboards.

That's what I thought might be the case with this battery. It is listed as a deep cycle in the specs.
