Other Deka ETX-12 replacement?

[OCD Solutions]

I am shopping for a pair of new batteries and am not coming up with too many hits on the Deka ETX batteries. All my old sources have dried up and everything else is either too expensive or too far out for shipping.

What’s a decent replacement these days? Looking for AGM, not lead or lithium.

Lowe’s. Just bought two etx12s

I have access to two different Lowe’s and neither shows stock. I can order online but they show delivery right after the long weekend. FML.

All Lowe’s within 100 miles show not available for pickup in store. Delivery 7/7/2021 at the earliest.

Must be a Georgia thing?

If you're a Sam's club member the agm Duracells are made by East Penn, same terminal ends and 79.00.

There ya go. Too bad I can’t check stock online.

I had them ship to the store, was a few days but pretty easy.

I feel like any auto parts store will have an AGM similar to what you are looking for.

Advanced Auto has their version. Made by same co. I believe

I check all the Charlotte stores and they all have a July 7th date

 

[OCD Solutions]

They could probably get here prior to the 7th, I just can't risk it.
I can check Autozone after work but Sam's club will have to wait till the weekend.

 

[Big Kahuna]

You planning to ride the big weekend?

Headed to a buddies place on Lake Tobesofkee to see if I can convince him to buy one or both of our skis.

He probably doesnt want the beach cart though lol!

 

[OCD Solutions]

He has to buy the package deal to get the cart.

He probably doesn't want that blue carbon chamber though...

Well, to be fair, you should get first shot at getting that back.
That was the plan if I end up parting out, if not, a trade would get it done should you want it.

Advance Auto and O'Reilly both stock Deka's rebadged under other names.

I’m at a stage in my life where I have more money than time to dick around with little things like saving a few bucks.

Stopped at an Autozone on my way to pick up a crew lunch and found a pair of Deka made Duralast Gold ETX-12’s for $215 out the door.

$89.99 each plus $10 recycle fee.

Way more than I wanted to spend for something I’m likely to only use for one day but it is what it is. The most I was gonna save by shopping around was probably under $40 anyways.

Alright, I could have saved $65 if had ordered online and had them shipped to my house, and I would have had them by the 29th....

Spilt milk right!
