There is an Interstate distributor in Arvada.

I got mine from a small RV shop behind the Camping World store in Fort Collins. Good price and nice people.

Apparently they don't sell them at the Costco's in CO. Bill, I wish I had the funds to spend on the interstates, but I don't

I'd hate to have to settle for a single 12v, but I might have to

I like Interstate. We've got an Interstate distributor right here in town, and they sell direct to the public too.

I've never cared to pay money annually for permission to spend money at any store. So Costco, Sams, et al are of no interest to me.


Like your "deal" form the Interstate distributor to save some bucks . .

Costo and/or Sams loss - - - is your loss!..

Whatever Volt, get them at Costco. 36 month free replacement without even a question.

The six volt deep cycle batteries at my Costco only have a 12 month warranty and that is prorated. I have never seen such a short warranty on a battery.


X2 all 6 I bought are 12 month pro rated
0-6 months free
7-8 35 percent
9-10 15 percent
11-12 5 percent

If they go bad they better do it soon or Ill just take them back
every 6 months


Can't do that any more. They charge 'em for something like 30 minutes, then load test and, if they check out OK, you can't return them.

Weird. Every Costco I've seen here in AZ, has a 6v Interstate 215 a/h "golf cart" battery. Price is usually right at $80 each. I haven't seen a "Costco brand".

Maybe in AZ. But in my Costco they dont even have a load tester, I asked because I left mine at home,I always test my new battery before I leave the store,I then asked how they knew that a battery is bad he said you bring it back give me a receipt and get a new one
BTY I tested them when I got home they were fine.But I have got some that were not.
