    There are only a few battery manufacturers in the US. You may can google the name and trace it back to who made it. Biggest thing is the dealership and how they handle problems. That is why folks like the Walmart ones, they have no hassle returns. I got an AGM from Academy Sports and they assured me they would stand behind it ahead of the manufacturers warranty. So far I have not had to test that statement. They had the best price on the size AGM I needed.

    PS . According to this it is an Exide battery: https://www.ohiogamefishing.com/thre...l-king.279229/

    I see that being a series 27 and that to be a fair price for it. About 3 years, give or take, is what most folks get out of lead acid batteries and then one of them has an issue and the pair get replaced . For that money, I wouldn't fuss when three years down the road I had to replace. A good on board charger helps all the life out of any battery.

    Used rural king the last two times I've bought deep cycle batteries. Work just as they should, and can't find a better price. Go for it!
