i beleive the problem is buying a crappy tire battery in the first place. ive replaced 2 in a honda prelude. lucky under their warranty. after got a battery replace by cca. they i think put in a interstate one. it has yet to give me problems. starts everytime with no indication of dieing.

I didn't put it in. It was there when I bought it. Any other ideas?

Whats with everyone and knocking down CT Products. Yea they have the odd ones that don't work, just like every other company.

Personally, I've used the Motomaster 72 in my vehicles for years and never had a problem with it, and when it does... it was always covered under warrenty.

They have a pretty good standby life on them, around 80 minutes or more I think. All that I know is that I've had my Neons, Stereo (Amp going, Subs pounding)Thumpin', for a good 45 minutes and my car still started perfectly.

If you want a free battery... go to a jump yard, find about 10 batteries and give them into CT. I think they give you $5 per battery if its in good condition.

I've never had a problem with any CT batteries. I had a Sears DieHard Gold with lifetime warranty pooch it in 4 months though...

Currently I buy Eveready batteries from WalMart and honestly - they kick total ass! I have never been so impressed with a battery for the price. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

That's not what I want to hear! I just bought one of those. Oh well, I know I don't have to spend $$$ on one for atleast another 3 years.

I had a Diehard Gold in my Trans Am and it worked flawlessly and ran the car/stereo excellent for 2 yrs until I sold the car.
