get a cheap one from walmart i do the same thing every year..
That is what's called reverse economics. I go to BatteriesPlus for my motorcycles and sleds, and I'm kinda a motorsports nut. Here's the thing... a cheap Walmart battery is gonna cost you $39 anyway (not for most of my stuff, but maybe a wheeler? doesn't matter anyway) and a good, sealed AGM battery is gonna cost you $69-79 I'd bet. Now follow me with the math... a Battery Tender is gonna cost you $50 or so... so add the AGM battery and you are at $129. The battery tender is gonna last you forever and I get like said above, 3-4 years out of heavy, but SEASONAL use (hard on batterys). The annual $39 walmart batterys is gonna cost you $160 for the 4 years. Basically twice what I pay for my quality AGM batterys. It cost me a lot of Walmart batterys to get it myself! Now you can get more time out of a Walmart battery using a tender too, but unless you are really dilligent with the water levels (I aint got time for that LOL) I never got more than a few years. You are still ahead with a sealed AGM battery by not having to replace it every 2 years.BatterysPlus is all over the country, I don't work for them, but they have great prices on Yuasa made AGM batterys and always have what I need in stock. I don't even call anymore, it's pointless- they have it. But of course you should call with you application.
Anytime it isnt loaded on the trailer or in the back of your truck it should be on a battery tender. If you do this, it really doesnt matter. All batteries will get about 3-4 years with a tender, 1-3 without.
I think your time is better spent trying to figure out why your machine is chewing up and killing batteries. I have an 07 arctic cat that is still on the original battery. My 2000 honda superhawk would still have a 5 or 6 yr old battery if I didn't slip up and let it freeze last winter in storage. Is there a draw somewhere killing it? Will the batteries take a charge from any other machine after they come out of yours? As with anything else you will def get what you pay for when it comes to batteries. Spend the extra and save yourself the headache of changing a dead battery in the middle of winter
Sorry for you but Interstate doesn't make batteries.
