I WOULD BUY ANOTHER - in 5 years...
Well lets see. Went to Kerrville for the Eclipse. Got there at around 7:30am. And played my car CD player, until almost 2pm. Granted I started the car a few times to not run the battery down. But it made the experience, and not for myself only. A lot of people "liked" - having it playing. Didn't really have a choice anyway. I was the second person at this spot. Parked right against the road out, to not get blocked in. So it wasn't going to stop. Most of the people didn't come to this spot until 10:30 - 11am. We really weren't supposed to park there. A cop, watched Me and the other car there, for a while. But left us alone. I was playing my religious albums. Stuff I wrote and recorded. Then played a live Queen concert, from 1974. Then played Jesus Christ Superstar, I recorded in LA, on Easter Night 1980. KWST's show "The 7th Day". Then did the darkness, playing a religious album given to me in 1999, at the first Church I went to, for The Father. Gone to them for weddings and stuff. That doesn't count as - going to Church. But that's experience, for the most part so far. Only had the battery for about - 1 week now. Don't really know how to send you a video. Or I'd send the laptop video I did from 12:52pm till 1:43pm, at the site of the Eclipse. You can hear the people, the music. All the noise when it went dark. During the 4 minutes. the picture the laptop was making got weird, until it was light again. Got real grainy. Got good shots of the moon and sun though.

No handle or box, delivered
what was delivered to me was different from this product photo. THERE WAS NO HANDLE. as a result my finger was injured, installing this into a tight small space where it wasn't easy to fit. It had NO box at all. Could have been used for all i know. The date sticker on it said it was at least 10 months old as well. disgusting! on a 2 year warranty, its useful life is half used up already. The delivery to home was a joke- they used DOOR DASH! random people . Not auto parts delivery person. No help at all installing this battery or taking the old one out. And i am an elderly grandmother. Terrible experience, i'm still in pain a day later, from the weight of having to pickup and move 2 car batteries by myself.

Won't buy another one after 2 failures
The first battery completely bad (not discharged) at 23 months of 24 month warranty isn't bad. But batteries used to last 5+years. Now much less, and much more expensive. The 2nd battery I got under warranty only had the one month left on the original warranty. It completely failed in 12 months. These are not the Diehards from 20 years ago. Cheap cheap cheap! I will never buy an advance auto battery again, nor die hard. Completely inexcusable cheap quality
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
I would reccommend this Product.
It cranked my 47 year old car even with the old gas in it
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
DieHard? More like Die PERIOD!
Second time replacing this battery in 2 years. DieHard used to be a great battery. I won't be buying another one!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
DO NOT BUY A BATTERY FROM ADVANCE AUTO PARTS!!!!
I bought a Silver battery in October 2019 for my Chevy Silverado 1500. The battery died in October 2020 and was replaced under warranty. It then died again in January 2021, so when the second battery was 15 months old. Because this was beyond the original 2 year warranty period beginning October 2019, I was out of luck. Nothing, nada, zilch from Advance to stand behind a 15 month old battery that replaced the original battery that died in a year.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend
Wife's van and does the job
Van used to have cold weather issues but not any more
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
