Deal Details
Advance Auto Parts [advanceautoparts.com]has DieHard Platinum Battery Group 24F, 750 CCA for $143.45 + $22 Refundable Core Charge. Free Store Pickup


Details:
What is a Core Charge?
  • A "Core Charge" is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda. In many states, to promote recycling, you are charged a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and you receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have a Core Charge, or Core Price, that works the same way as a soda can deposit.
Does the Core Charge vary?
  • Core Charges are often mandated by state legislature, and, as such, the actual core charge and taxes on the charge may vary depending on the state in which you buy your part. The core charge presented to you online today with your item is representative of the most common core charge.
Here's how the Core Charge works:
  • The part you are purchasing contains a component that is recyclable
  • The Core Charge deposit is charged at the time of purchase
  • When the recyclable component from your old part is returned to us, the charge is refunded to you
  • To receive your Core Charge refund, you can do either of the following:
  • Bring the part to any Advance Auto Parts store along with your receipt or packing slip
  • Mail the part back to Advance Auto Parts following the directions included on your packing slip

This is not an AGM battery. It's a conventional lead-acid battery.

Would have jumped on this instantly if it really was AGM

Yep... me too. This price and product is comparable to Everstart Maxx 24F battery (Walmart is still about $5 cheaper). I believe both batteries are made by the same company, but the DieHard has 1 extra year of warranty (4 years vs 3 of Walmart). You're more likely to find a fresher battery at Walmart though since they sell way more of these than Advance Auto does, so its time sitting on the shelf is likely to be less and you will probably be able to get one produced within the past month at Walmart for a common size like 24F.

so is the title just wrong then? it says platinum AGM, but if the linked one is conventional that changes the math a lot vs the everstart

Walmart batteries have changed and are among the worst around now. Project Farm did a great video about it.
