Looking to replace an Interstate Trolling Motor battery and saw these yesterday at Sams.
I have a 24volt TM with one of the batteries need replacing.

I'm on my second set. The first set lasted about 4 years and the price is right.

Interstate, Duracell, Big momma, die hard, orileys, autozone, Walmart.... All lead plate batteries are made by Johnson Controls with a different case and name. Same batteries. Same raw material. Don't get caught up in the name brand its more about the type, size, and Maintaence for your application.

Its more about the warranty length and ease claims with warranty.

We've had a set of deep cell's in our travel trailer for a couple of years now. No problems.

The Duracell AGMs are made by East Penn, who makes Deka.
OP, the Duracells are the best bang for your buck.

actually not all are Johnson controls...
some are made by DEKA... and made in the USA...not Mexico.
Specifically the O'reilly super start platinum...and and a couple others I can't recall at the moment...Call Deka and they will tell you what brands /specific models they produce for others (pretty sure one was a duracell AGM

That would be cooler if I didn't already know that DEKA was a Johnson control company.

Remember the DEKA revolt ??? that put them on the map and caught the eye of the JC money to invest in a R&D plant somewhere in New Hampshire.

that was optima
Deka is still a family owned made in the USA battery company...
East Penn Manufacturing.
A private, family-owned company operating
the largest single-site, lead battery
manufacturing facility in the world.
what would be cooler is if you'd researched your facts before you posted non factual information
