I'm looking for a new battery, My old size 1 does not hold a charge. The two I'm considering are the tractor supply 6 volt and the Duracell 6 volt. Both batteries have been discussed here. The Duracell is smaller and should fit easier into my battery box, however, it is only 400 cranking amps. The tractor supply battery is 700 cranking amps but it is slightly larger than the Delco battery I'm now using, and the Delco is a tight fit. Are the people here that use the Duracell battery happy with the 400 amp performance, or should I go with the tractor supply battery even though fit may be a problem
