my battery was kinda old so I Googled 24F battery to see what pops up and what prices were looking like. one of the ones that caught my attention was the Exide battery that they sell at Home Depot for $109.. it comes with 3 year free replacement and the reviews look pretty good. I had a hard tiem finding it in the store but an employee pointed me in the right direction. I guess they don't sell a lot of them since it's Home Depot, the battery was dusty and the ship date said January on it. after purchasing it I took it home and put it on my smart charger before installing in my car. I've made it a habbit to charge vehicle batteries before installing them. so far so good. the battry also has a fold away handle that's pretty good.

 

nothing wrong with exide
