I bought one of those Champion batteries.  Lasted less than a month.  Cost
me $100 to have my charging system diagnosed because I couldn't believe it
was the brand new battery that was the problem.  I have had excellent
experiences with the Die Hard batteries, *except* for the Die-Hard Gold.
This one will never recover if it ever gets completely drained, unlike the
standard Die-Hard, which lives up to its name.  YMMV on all of this, of
course...
