Good to know......... BUT

With a Walmart or Academy battery, the best I got was maybe 30 months.

Average life about 24 months.

This was with keeping a battery charger connected all the time same as I currently do.

So...... why have I gotten almost 2x the life on the NAPA batteries. Only difference is I don't go fishing as often in the past.
