Only a 1 year warranty?......?
But not actually for your Bronco....

The name is cool! Only a 1-year warranty and it's made for energy storage. Not sure it would have the CCA required for starting, etc. Just my thoughts. Cheers!

Sixty-four pounds. That is heavy.

Sixty-four pounds. That is heavy.

Lithiums are 5-7 lbs/ 1200+ CCA but they're $400+

I just had to change my battery for the first time and I was a little surprised when Autozone said they weren't gonna touch it. After changing it myself I kind of see why though. I had no idea they could make it such a pain to change a simple thing. At least the check engine light went away on its own after a couple days.

Count ourselves lucky. The 3rd Gen Escape is an order of magnitude worse to change.
Some small shops don't even like to do it.

I had mine replaced at my local Ford dealership with an OEM AGM battery, total cost with labor and cost of battery was $288.79. Also came with an individual 36k mile warranty on the battery.

I lost the bottom nut for the battery bracket immedietly and had to find something else that fit when putting it back.

I dropped my nuts a long time ago...
