the brand was transferred to a new owner basically and the quality of them has dropped. seeing more threads of people having theirs go bad in 1-2 years. maybe 3.
use the strongest high batteries you can fit in your vehicle from interstate or sears. this is where i stand on batterys right now for the near future.

i shoud also not e the transfer happened in 2000 and the batts for a while were good but lately as the owner johsnons controls make some decent stuff as far as the batt is concerned they are basically a constructor and private labeler for other companies and have let the quality of materials used lack. i was hoping that as they became oem providers for hybrid cars things would improve but i just don't see the evidence of it yet in any significant amount.
