Re: (ET) Battery advise please

[D Howell <dervatl yahoo com>]

Joseph, I bought the Sams Club batteries last year.  Mine were manufactured by Exide.  I've been pleased with them.  My yard is about 1/2 acre, but I also mow my neighbors yard at the same time.  I think the Sams Club are the "best bang for the buck" although they may not be the highest quality battery out there.
