You'll recall a discussion we had about the garden battery in an
(unmentionable here) piece of
equipment. The battery wouldn't hold a charge. You suggested maybe
the battery was old. So today I
checked it. July, 2006. Not too bad, but that might help explain why
I had to keep hitting it with
the charger.
Put a new one in it (unmentionable here). Set my back all of $22
with a discount. Maybe this one
will last me another five years.
The technology for lead acid batteries hasn't changed in decades.
Basically, anything you get over two years, is a gift....

What kind of cheap batteries do you buy?
We get 5 or 6 years out of original equipment automobile batteries and
I'm still using that old marine battery Tom included with the Yukon.
Lawn mower and motorcycle batteries typically last two years. If you cut
your grass once in a while you'd know that.

I bought my gasoline powered lawn tractor in 2003. Last year, seven
years later, the battery died. I have 400 hours on the tractor and
during the growing season, mow my lawn at least once a week. That's
seven years, not two. You should have stayed in the navy, where your
"mop up the gang shower skills" were appreciated.

Spoofer alert!! Lawn tractor batteries only have a one year warranty for
a reason.
