Default New Battery

My battery in my 20 SGS died. Any recommendation? I have upgraded the stereo so probably better than stock.

Don't quote me on that, but I think it's the case.

Edit: it's $10 off with a code they send you.

Curious why your OEM battery gave it up, those are good for at least 4 or 5 years minimum.

Deka/East Penn batteries. They made the Harley Davidson's batteries in the past, but not should they do now. They also cost less the the MOCO ones.

Yes $10 off worked great, Big Crank is $10 off right now too. Ordered a new battery for my quad as well. Great prices so hopefully they're good batteries. Was gonna run to Batteries Plus but just too high even with their 15% off right now. My UC's fuel pump wouldn't even prime cause the battery is totally dead.

Me too. I get 7. My buddy last year had one go, and they prorated. I have had great luck with harley batteries, and that is why I keep buying them. I had a truck battery go last year. 2 cases is not a trend, but I have wondered if with all the demand for batteries for electric vehicles, if the standards are being lowered. Prices have sure gone up on all types of batteries.

While I have good luck with variuous brands in all my other vehicles, I just go back to Harley, cause I have had good luck. I hear so many cases of people getting two years, and I have to wonder if just buying cheap batteries.
