Batteries are batteries, most of them come out of the same two or three factories and just have different stickers put on them. I go to a wholesale battery store that sells a lot of batteries to the local Army bases and buy the cheapest thing he has. Sometimes the stickers say Delco, sometimes they are Deka, sometimes they are some off brand I have never heard of before. They usually last at least as long as the ones from Deere that cost three times as much.
