The Wal-Mart and Costco are the same battery made by Johnson Controls. I
hate Die Hards. I've had too many die hard-failed inter cell connectors
leaving you suddenly stranded.

Wal-Mart warranty is best. Upon return they actually refund the purchase
price. Then you buy new battery with new warranty again.

When I called Sears they only had a group 41 and it was $120, with a two
year warrenty.

Went to Wally world 2 year. $60.

>Well, I say drive down the street to your local Sears, and you'll find
your group 41 battery or my personal preference the 40R, with a higher AH
rating. Five-year pro rated warranty. Three year no questions asked, two
years prorated
thereafter. About $90. Leave Costco to the folks who like to buy their
mayonnaise by the 5 gallon jug.
