[QUOTE="NDwalleyes, post: 321406, member: 218"] [SIZE=2][FONT=arial]When it comes to lead acid batteries, there are only 3 manufactures of them in the US, [/FONT][/SIZE][COLOR=#282829][FONT=-apple-system][SIZE=2][FONT=arial]Johnson Controls, which supplies more than half of the market, Exide; and East Penn. Interstate batteries are manufactured by Johnson Controls. If you have issues with a line of batteries, don't look at the sticker on the side of the battery, you will need to look at the SDS for the manufacturer. Typically you can get the SDS online or from the retailer. Been using Interstates / Johnson Control for years. They are thirsty bastards and need to be watered several time per year, like 6 times/year. I was told that once you let a cell get dry to the point where the lead is exposed, the cell is toast. Not sure if it is true, but I seem to have better luck than most with batteries.[/FONT][/SIZE] [/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
