Sam's club has Duracell branded marine batteries at the best prices I could find last year. Even had really good prices on the AGM batteries. There are only 2-3 real battery manufacturers out there and most brands just are different stickers. If I recall correctly Duracell brand is made by Deka, who also makes NAPA batteries.

All my battery issues vanished years ago when I switched to deep cycle batteries for starting.
|
Most exide batteries I have seen leak acid around the terminals I wont buy them anymore.
|
Interstate batteries have always worked great for me. Never had one fail that wasn't at least 5 years old.
|
The key is how they are cared for IMO.
|
Had an odessey (sp.) deep cycle that lasted 11 seasons.
|
i have the marine battery,s from autozone.about 110 bucks each,so far so good.
|
I heard Costco was now selling Interstate marine batteries, but I can't confirm that. That's where I'll be looking first when the time comes.
|
Just switched to Odyssey, no more flooded batteries for me!
