My buddy gave me his(from ~2010) carry-a-round Schumacher(#IP125C) battery jumper(w/mini compressor) but, the battery is dead and needs to be replaced. I did try giving the battery a full charge but, it won't hold the charge for more than a few hours. I realize that the unit is no longer in production but has been updated. Batteries are still available. This is similar to what the unit looks like:

I can buy a new battery(amazon/ebay/W*M online etc) for between $35-$60 depending on whether I want Lead Acid or AGM. My question is, would the AGM give me longer life if I spend the extra money? Worth it or not considering this is only for emergencies and who knows when I'll need to use it!
