Hi, if I might respectfully disagree with Tom, there's also an AGM floor scrubber battery from FullRiver. Both brands are Chinese and I've had OK results with both. <br><br>The former sales rep for Discover was terrible about things like returning phone calls. When Harris Battery took over distribution for Discover I was looking forward to better things. My very first purchase under the new regime went badly, however. The sales guy told me one amount on the phone then slammed my credit card for a higher amount. <br>
<br>Arguments are ongoing but I suggest doing more with FullRiver & less with Discover. The bottom line is that the Harris rep made a mistake but (a) won't admit it and (b) expects me to pay for it. FullRiver is a couple percent more on the price of comparable batts but very low hassle. <br>
