Just want to say I would never waste another dollar on a Interstate Marine Battery! My boat is 13 months old and one of the trolling motor batteries has gone bad and apparently they have a 1 year warranty only! Its what it came with but next time I'll tell them to just keep the batteries and go with Walmart ones. They last longer and have no problem warranting them 24 hours a day!

I only use the Walmart Everstart Maxx Seeies 29 for my start battery and TM batteries. They have a 24 month warranty. I had one with 3 months left on the warranty go out. They tiook care of it with no charge.

You must have gotten a bad one. I've had excellent luck with Interstate batteries.

I've had them in the past also and had nothing but problems! This boat just came with them. The ridiculous part to me is the 1 year warranty! So if u have good luck with them then great! I just never have and they apparently don't have much faith in there product with the warranty! And taking care of them has nothing to do with the problem! Its got a loose plate in it causing it to short and over heat when charging!

Been there done that. Could not give me an interstate for free. Junk, and we will not even outfit them in our fire trucks. They are known for not lasting long

I have never had any problems with Interstate. I run them in my boat and in the 200 plus work trucks.

I've still got my original interstate batteries in my Phoenix 921 since 2012. Still going strong and I use them every weekend in brutal winds of Toledo Bend. I do take care of them though. That's the key.

Used to use walmart batteries but they didnt last very long when I got a bigger boat. Ive been Interstate ever since and only on my second set in 5 years. Energizer should make a marine battery since they are all about "longest lasting batteries". Even if they did, taking care of your batteries is KEY!
