I just replaced my OEM battery on my Toro, it had a 2012 date on it, so I got 6.7 years outta it. It was a SLA battery. (it was only 195cca)
Mine takes an "under the seat" battery, which is only 6-1/4" tall, & all the cheap priced ones are 7-1/4" tall. (naturally).....:confused2: but they are only 200cca.
Anyhow I put in a fresh 350cca unit, with a 1 yr warranty from my Dealer. $59. out the door. My mower starts so fast I swear my hand almost doesn't touch the key & it's running..:thumbsup:
And I do put my battery MINDers* on my batteries.
I measure first, then try & find the highest cca rating that will fit.
