they are ok i guess for about 85$ i can sell you a real sealed agm battery made by kinetic for a different brand that is also a name brand not generic like those. they are just simple lawn and garden batteries.

being sealed lead acid vs a real AGM battery they will die off within a yr or 2 they are not designed for car audio use.

but you can try em out. you can also go to any walmart and buy the same battery for less $$

You do know that the precious Shuriken battery that you sell is nothing more than a re-badged version of this exact battery line? Shurikens are not made by Kinetik since Kinetik does not even make anything themselves. There are three major sources of batteries today.

1) Unknown China brands

2) East-Penn

3) Enersys

There are others, like Optima, but they are probably not as prevalent as the list above. All of the brands like Kinetik, XS, Stinger SPV, Shuriken, UB, and many others are all made in China. There are many many battery factories in China. Chances are not good that they are all made in the same factory.
