Hey everyone,
I was recently shopping for batteries for my towtruck. It takes 2 group 78 batteries and I am planning to relocate the batts to an underbed location mainly because the underhood area is so congested.
Most of the decent quality batteries are between $100 and $130 plus core for This application.
The wife and I were in Sams club and I wandered into the tire section and was checking out batteries. They had some 12 volt batteries which were 22"w x 12"d x 11"h Diehard brand 8D size I think.
The batteries were rated for 1775 cca.
I asked the manager about the batts and He said that a fellow ordered 4 of them and backed out when they came in about 2 weeks ago. He said that they were for some piece of heavy equipment
The price is $176 and actually saves me a bit of cabling too.
I guess my question is are those type batteries suitable for an on the road application like this??
