That's the brand I have in my Montgomery Ward, I've never had trouble with tsc huskee batteries, have not tried the new traveler ones.Nice I bought one from tractor supply that didn't last a year. Replaced it with one from walmart and still using it.
On another tractor I put an advanced auto autocraft battery in and its been fine too.

Exactly ...My neighbor bought a battery from napa...it died in 2-3 months...he brought it back and they exchanged it with the same type and brand and its been fine over a few years now. Just like another guy posted above he had good dealing with TSC Huskee batteries but for me I got a bum one.So, all the advertising and all the reputations are out the window? It's just a crap shoot how good any given battery will be.
You know how it's always been. . . a guy's always had Fords. He bought one Chevy once and it was a Total POS. He's a Ford Man. His friend had just the opposite experience. He's a Chevy Man. Each one is stead fast in their beliefs and have the experience to back it up. Batteries and political parties are chosen the same way.
so you use that in place of a "wet cell" battery ?so I am finally following up on this. I had this out of booster box, I ran it in my wheelhorse 701 all summer, it's 7"x3"
