The only thing that makes a battery "Interstate" is the label. It's all about marketing; Interstate doesn't manufacture batteries.

Indeed. Back in the 1970s I had a temp Job at the local Globe Union Battery Factory.

As the Batteries came down the Conveyer you saw all kinds of labels on them; including Sears Die Hard.

I did not seen one Label that had Globe Union on it.
