Purchased one in 2011 still strong

Purchased for my yukon in 2011 it still holding strong. I listen to my radio for hours with my vehicle off and never a problem great battery and great price. You would be lucky to get a junk vaue craft battery for the same price!

Fits Cadillac

This Group 78 battery fits a 2004 CTS (6 cyl) Cadillac perfectly and comes with a carry strap (unlike the 101 battery). Only 10 amps of cold cranking power less than the 101. Recently purchased but good battery so far . . .

Duracell is NOT a good car battery!

It lasted for only 2 years. They replaced it under the 3 year warranty but now the new battery only comes with balance of original battery's warranty. ( not another 3 year. warranty.)

I wouldnt buy this one again

This battery lasted in my 2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer all of 20 months before leaving wife stranded. Would hardly accept a jump start. Sam's did replace as has a 3 year warranty.

Wears out well before the warranty expires

Bought 1 and it lasted less than 1 year. I replaced it through Sam's and the second one is now bad in less than another year. Hoping they'll stand behind the 3 year warranty. My car has had the alternator checked and there are no shorts in the system causing any drain on the battery. The car is parked outside but not in too harsh of conditions, so I would've expected it to last longer.

Wow - 8 1/2 years - no trickle charge either

I bought my e78 - N battery for a 1994 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Extended Cab pick up truck - well it lasted up to November of 2023 - starting my truck once a month - occasionally a trip to Home depot since I have a lumber rack on it and picking up 16' lumber was a breeze. Sometimes a trip to the local refuse - I have been very impressed with it lasting this long.

Over 8 years old and still going strong!

Bought at Sams October 2011 for my 2006 Silverado and it's never let me down! Even in the cold midwest!

Not quite 2 years

6/22 more date, now 5/24 and battery does not hold a charge even in 60-70 degree weather. Looks like another trip to sams for warranty replacement

club did not install the correct battery, did not let me know till after the installation, i come in for the group size 34/78 battery. I called to make sure they had it stock before i came in. Most likely will not use there service ever again.
