The best batteries I have encountered were made by Fiat for Chrysler corp.They were in the recent Dart and some of the Jeeps.I worked in a dealership and the service dept would tow in Darts and Jeeps for non starting problems.The 1st thing the service techs would do is replace the battery prior to checking anything.Even though the vehicle was less than a year old.When I discovered this ,I would go to the battery pile with my load tester and pick a battery.there were ALWAYS almost new batteries in the pile.The Fiat made ones were not large but they weigh a ton.It was hard to believe how much they weighed.I had a couple of them in my garage for a few years without charging them and when I needed one ,it registered almost a full charge and cranked up whatever I put it in.Still have one in my fishing boat.I will take a pic of the label next time I see it.Incredible batteries.Charlie
