They sure don't make a typical 12 volt automotive battery worth a damn anymore.

I wonder if battery manufacturers branched into battery maintainers? Then it would make sense to make sub-par batteries...


Do I need a tinfoil hat?

I saw one theory on that being where batteries are made and possibly like those videos you see with barefoot people cutting the top off batteries and mixing up used plates and rebranding them... not to mention there hasn't been any domestically mined lead for like 30 years now so they're probably not refining the scrap lead very well... and knowing this country they probably outlawed something that made batteries last longer like using a subpar acid or something...
