Just heard back from Minuteman. They only warranty their replacement batteries for 90 days...

I'll need to check with the other companies to see how they handle that. Warranties don't preclude failures, but one might reasonably assume that the longer a company warranties something, the greater their confidence that the item being covered will last.

Warranties do not preclude failures, they only give you (with proper documentation as JH could not provide) recourse for replacement at the manufacturers discretion.
