Re: (ET) Duracell Batteries



Since everyone is bringing up different brands, etc, I'd like to ask if anyone has heard of "The Usable" brand? They are apparently made my Deka/East Penn and are gel cells. My question is are they refurbs or some kind of wholesale brand? Supposedly they have a nice 20 hour rate, but don't remember exact numbers. I can get them from a local guy for $90 each.

As of a couple of years ago, Deka/East Penn was the supplier to Batteries + Bulbs. So good batteries. This of course may vary with time and/or location, so would have to inquire as to the current supplier (they were happy to tell me). May also be able to get the Deka's from NAPA auto parts stores.There is an independent dealer near me with the Crown batteries which have also done well so far.Was that a typp on the Trojan price, as listed price difference is $6-$18 not $100.On 6/16/15 1:46 PM, Mike Wallace wrote:> Anybody have an opinion about 6 volt GC batteries with the Duracell> brand name?
