Batteries and Battery Chargers Long live your John Deere Do these look the same to you? Didn’t think so. You’d never expect your car to take on the work your tractor does, and you shouldn’t expect a car battery to handle the load either. John Deere offers batteries that aren’t just “good enough” for tough work – they were designed for tough work. Our StrongBox™ and Performance batteries are built to power through tough field conditions that not all batteries are strong enough to face. If you’re taking a trip to Grandma’s, auto batteries should work just fine. But if you’re in the field doing some real work, don’t risk it. Choose genuine John Deere batteries.

Features shown are applicable to heavy-duty, commercial StrongBox batteries, StrongBox Hibernator batteries, and StrongBox special-application tractor batteries, and are not necessarily applicable to all types of StrongBox batteries. 2. Some StrongBox batteries may be activated at the factory for convenience. The StrongBox dry-charged process ensures that batteries remain in a state of suspended life animation until they are activated with electrolyte, at which time they are “born” as brand new wet-charged batteries. The freshly activated battery is in fact a brand new wet-charged battery. Data is on file that shows dry-charged batteries stored for 50+ years still performed as new after an activation followed by a boost charge.
