I think buying a battery is about like buying a lottery ticket. I have 
have had a few go bad before their time but I have had a few that defy 
the usual life span of a normal battery. The original one in my Honda 
trike for one. I have a set of Case IH batteries in my Magnum tractor 
that I installed in 2000 and they still started the tractor last fall on 
one of the coldest days I have ever had to start it. Got a set in the 
combine either a year older or newer than the tractor still working too. 
Delco has usually been pretty good. Got an old Power Surge six volt on 
the Cockshutt 40 that has to be ten or more years old. Still gets me 
through the winter.
