Y'all may be right, but every battery I've ever bought has been built by either JC or Exide, at least only the ones that had the manufacturer listed. However, for the purpose of this discussion, I thought we were only considering 12v starting batteries such as the ones on our mowers. I realize when you consider all other types of batteries, there are a myriad of manufacturers.

Wal mart's Everstart brand is made by Johnson Controls. I have used them or years. Life in my ride around has been 2-3 years with a lot of trickle charge maintenance along the way . $25

Everstarts are not bad batteries. I just replaced my old one with another everstart, and it had a date code of 2007! That's pretty good in my opinion...

I'm sure they aren't the "best" but I've gone cheap in OPE around my place. The expensive ones don't seem to last any longer, so I'm looking for best price for the capacity in an AGM battery. I've bought several on-line from Chrome Battery. Great prices and free shipping + they seem to be holding up well. Google 'em.

The acronym OPE in this case stands for outdoor power equipment, I presume?
