Re: (ET) battery price questions

Jim;

 I bought 6 Energizer GC-2 a couple months ago at Sam's Club in Davenport, IA. $80 with core and they didn't care what size the core was. I could have traded in a garden tractor battery. The core allowance was pretty much equal to the scrap value of the 63 lb batteries so I did trade a couple 12 v car batteries and saved the T-105s for scrapping. 

    $512 out the door.

 Has anyone purchased or priced batteries lately?  I can get the East Penn/Deka batteries for $90 plus core,  lots cheaper than Trojan T105s, and I can get them locally besides.  What has been people's experience with these batteries compared to others?  I tried checking the archives and Elec-Trak.com for battery info and didn't find the kind of comparisons or info that I would like.

Thanks!
