Auto Zone battery died. It was only 7 years old.

Per Mr. Google:

Most aftermarket car batteries sold in the U.S. are made by three companies that build them for retailers: Johnson Controls, which supplies more than half of the market; Stryten; and East Penn. They are sold under various names and built to the specifications of retailers, so performance can vary. Jan 11, 2023

Decca is East Penn
 
Oh OK, recent merger?
In July 2020, Exide sold certain North American assets to Atlas Holdings. On August 25, 2020, Atlas Holdings launched standalone companies Stryten Manufacturing and Element Resources following its acquisition of substantially all the operating assets of the Americas business of Exide Technologies, LLC.
 
Guess I am behind the Times . At this rate We will all be buying 'Buy n Large' car batteries soon.
 
But if there are now just 3 companies but they build batteries to different specs within brands, how do you pick a battery???
