Duracell batteries
...available at Sams club. Apparently made by East Penn and re-branded. Would appreciate any comments from present owners, as I will be shopping for a new battery soon - mine is almost 6 yrs old.

I saw all that. What I am looking for are users of these batteries, not company PR. They all say they are the best, but I would like to hear from actual people who have them installed in their cars.

Then you obviously won't like the post above mine... LOL
I was about to get one of these AGM duracells from batteries plus, but the warranty wasn't as good as the Autozone Platinum that I got. They also seem relatively new. |

I have Deka 649MF Exact fit for 3 years. Chasing some electrical gremlins that took that battery out (I still have the gremlins). Replaced the battery under warranty. Gremlins aside, it's a good battery. never skipped a beat even in -35°C to -40°C. (-31°F to -40°F)
