most manufactures are very helpful in this regard, they want their batteries to make it through warrantee. :)
talk to them about recommended charging regimes, what you are using to charge with, charge rates, and most important how often and at what voltage to equalize at.
don't reinvent the wheel here, the manufacture truely knows best how to maintain their batteries. straying from their recommendation is done at your own risk.

call her back and ask for "engineering" if she tells you they have "tech support" but no engineering, ask her who manufactures their batteries???
get that name, and call and ask for their engineering dept.
sooner or later you will get to the guy in the know
just hope it isn't east penn, they won't even give an amp/hour chart at various rates. i refuse to buy batteries from anybody that cannot provide me with access to an engineering dept.
gotta wonder what they are hiding?

Naturally Sam's Club does not have a battery factory, And Energizer does not make lead-acid batteries.
Energizer evidently rented their name to Sam's Club for some re-stickered lead-acid batteries.
My bet is they are made by Interstate or Trojan.
The last 'brand' Sam's club sold was made by Trojan and rolled off the same line with the same parts, different case color.
Might try calling her back and asking for the "MSDS" data sheets. Many places do not bother to change the name at the top or in the bottom fine print copyright section, so it may say "Interstate" or "Trojan" or "somebody else" at the top/bottom. Then cross your specs to their part number. G- [ Parent ]
