Batteries for Crankin'

If you want long run time, go with 3 8V golf cart batteries. You'll need a 24V charger, but the power in 3 batteries will beat most any 2 battery setup.

Duracell 29HM

I thought these would be JC as well but was surprised to see the label on top says "manufactured by EAST PENN manufacturing co., inc. Lyon Station, PA, 19536." I would image that East Penn picked up part of a contract for Duracell just like Johnson Controls will make some NAPA batteries and East Penn will make others.
