Smaller battery, smaller plates, plus lawnmower batteries are only used for a few months, and then they sit there and discharge while tied in to the electrical system. Warranty on Die Hard Garden Tractor batteries are 6 months, while the Gold's warranty is 12 months. Most i see last 3-4 years. Most car batteries I see last 5-6 years.
