Battery Exide or Duracell

VW lists 3 batteries, 1 AGM (68 Ah, Varta) and 2 flooded (72 Ah, Varta and 59 Ah, Exide) that may be used.

My 2015 Jeep Patriot's factory battery from Chrysler had one, until I replaced it last year with a Sam's Club Duracell special

I got a Duracell from batteries plus because it has a two year warranty. Starts strong so far, but it’s only been maybe 4 months.

This one looks like it’s in very good shape, I’ve seen similar for sale for $200 to $300 but the couple I’ve seen at auction sold for $80 and $110 if my memory is correct. Both where in much worse shape than yours.

CYL10014 Duracell Ultra 14AH-BS 12V 220CCA AGM Powersport Battery. First thing I switched when I brought the rogue home. Goodbye tender.

We’ve been using Luminous inverter with an Exide battery for about a year now. No issues so far, works well to provide backup for about 4 hours.

The entire suspension was recently replaced with German parts, along with a full upgrade of rotors and low-dust ceramic pads on all corners and a new Duracell battery a few months ago.

Not near Utah but here on the west coast I use Powersonic or Genesis or Yuasa with good luck. For some reason all the Duracells I have purchased over the years fail about a year out of install.

However, I have had nothing but bad experiences with Exide batteries. I've bought three, and all have died within 2 years.

Duracell killed 6 pieces of electronics of mine over 10 years. If you paid me, I would not use them.
