Suddenly feeling better about my walmart special I replaced at 6 years. 
Batteries...what's good these days

I bought a Batteries+ X2Power AGM for the Armada three years ago. It started not holding a good charge this summer, but they replaced it without much hassle under warranty. So I guess meh for the battery, yay for the warranty?

For what it's worth, NAPA and Duralast have been good to me recently, AGM or otherwise.
I've kinda stopped buying AGM. I haven't killed a quality SLA (that wasn't my fault anyway) for years now.

Ummm.... Maybe. AGM didn't play in Cindy's JLU. @bryson is good at explaining it, I'm not. But basically, the AGM wants a higher charge voltage than the computer in our JL will give it and so it never gets a full charge in regular driving.
Have a barely used Odyssey I ended up replacing with a plain old SLA and it's been smooth sailing ever since. If anyone is interested in a barely used Odyssey at a decent price.
But, I dunno, what I dunno.

I picked up a little diode thingy that goes in the alternator fuse slot and is supposed to boost the voltage to make the AGM happy. But I haven't been running AGM, so I don't know if it works or not. Maybe that's an option in the JLU though?
