I would check with your Wal-Mart about their return policy on marine batteries. My Wal-Mart no longer has 1,2 or 3 year free replacement on marine batteries. They said that they usually do not last longer than a year so they dropped all warranties. I work there and get a discount but I am replacing a battery about every year so I would not recommend their batteries. I think I will have to give Interstate a try.

I replaced my Interstate batteries (which didn't make the 3~year warranty) with Deka AGM and couldn't be more pleased....

Interstate is a Crappie Anglers of Texas (CAT) sponsor. Members that have done business with them have all expressed solid and good comments from the battery itself or service. I have had the same experience.
You'll want to contact:
Dustin Pierce (Manager)
Interstate All Battery
10200 Plano Road ste 100
Dallas TX 75238
214.687.1094 cell
469.221.4500 office
469.221.4513 fax
He is giving CAT members a discount but I would be truthful if you're not and tell him if you're not. My take is he'll probably take care of you anyway. Just let him know CAT referred him/Interstate. I talked with Dustin and he said he'd be happy to give a discount to CAT referrals. If buying from Dustin be sure to mention CAT for the discount.

I have owned a Bass Boat for over thirty years and I think interstate is the best choice for crankin or deep cycle batteries either one.

Double check the warranty on Walmart boat batteries. It's not around anymore.

I have a solution for batteries and you don't need new ones. You can recondition those to last about 3 more years pm me for solution.

Interstate makes Optima batteries. My family own on RV business and dealing with Interstate has always been a good experience. The 29 series battery is a great battery and reasonable price. If you have the opportunity, feel the weight difference between the 27s and 29s. It's noticeably different.
