I bought WalMart/Sam's Club batteries years ago and could write 10 pages on the grief I experienced with their products.

I try to learn from my experiences.

I've been using Walmart batteries exclusively in my vehicles, riding mower, and TT since the 80's and haven't had any problems with them.

And the batteries you bought are probably from a different manufacturer than those showing up in WalMart/Sam's Club in MN.

Buying shotguns from Sears over the years, you could have a gun with the Sears name but it could be manufatured by Stevens, Winchester, Mossberg, Hi Standard, Noble or Zoli. As one would expect, quality and design varied widely.

Maybe there are a misunderstand about Sears. They manufacture nothing.
Their products are made by manufacturers, Sears as well as Craftsman are not a production company. Sears owns several patents and contract out to company's to produce them. They at one time had a quality control division but I think they have been closed.
