Which 12V Battery Do You Have Installed?

I suggest Auto Zone Duralast battery.

It's made by Johnson Controls. One of the big players in the battery world.

3 year replacement. The rest is pro-rated fairly.

You should buy a float charger - Ctek 3300 on ebay. You can find them for $50.00 and they are excellent.

I'll give that one a try. I've never had a battery last 3 years on any Corvette I own(lack of use). I'll pick one up tomorrow and swap 'em out for free every couple years.

I had one die on me after about 4 years. They gave me a new one for $20. Hard to beat that. They also keep it on record on the computer so you can go to any store and they will honor it.

Makes you wonder if you should float charge them LOL.

Just hope it dies before 3 years and keep getting a new one

Here's some interesting information. I couldn't find my receipt for the WalMart "Maxx" battery I bought 6 months ago that died but I called up and asked if I could bring it back since it had a 03/10 manufacture date on the side of it and a 3 year free replacement warranty. They said no problem, bring it back.

That battery had printed on the label "Made by Exide for WalMart". When I picked up the new 75N "Maxx" labeled battery with the same yellow "Maxx" label, I noticed that it looked different, had 700 CCA instead of 690. Further examination of the new battery showed that it was made in 02/11 and on the top label was printed "Made by Johnson Controls for WalMart".

Therefore, a new WalMart 75N "Maxx" battery is most likely the exact same battery as the AutoZone Duralast, still with a 3 year free replacement warranty.
