This absolute dryness is your guarantee that the battery has not li ed a part of its life before you buy it. For every battery begins to age from the very minute the battery solution first touches it. But when you know that the battery you buy is bone dry up to the time you buy it, you can be sure that you are buying a brand new battery. Still Better Willard Batteries cost more but they're worth it, both because the "Bone Dry" plates are your assurance of battery newness and because the Threaded Rubber Insulation also meant increased protection to plates and prolongs efficiency.
