I finally decided I cannot afford the cheap stuff from Wal Mart or
Harbor Freight.


Er, ah, Johnson Controls makes batteries for Walmart's Everstart brand.

Yuasa makes the small lead acid batteries, on of the best battery companies
on the planet.

Big batteries are too heavy to ship from Asia, so they contract Johnson
Controls to make them. Johnson Controls is the biggest lead-acid battery
manufacturer left in the USA.
