Bought a new Everstart battery from Wallyworld yesterday and set it down in the battery box of one of my two banger Deeres. Today there was water dripping out of the bottom of the battery box and slowly seeping across the floor. Pulled the battery this eve and one cell was empty. Cleaned up the bottom of the battery and there was a small scratch with a drip coming out of it under that cell. Looked in the battery box and it was clean except for a little short length of what looked like 3/32" welding rod or wire. There was a rough end on the wire and that rough end had made the scratch in the bottom of the battery. The tractor had not been driven and was only run for five minutes or so. I was real surprised at how thin the bottom of that battery is. I have to swallow the cost of this one but I'm hesitant to get another one from Wally World for use in a tractor if the bottom is that thin. What do you guys say? Are they all that thin today? Jim
