78 Group size fits perfectly in the CC battery box and hold down. Regular price $50. Usually on sale for $45. Made by Exide.

I have need for quite a few batteries. I've bought a bunch of these over the years. Most last the full five years, all at least four. I have a dozen or so Cyclops and all have this battery.

You need to use the hold down so the battery doesn't bounce around and vibrate. This battery will accept the CC hold down.

I've always had good luck with batteries from Farm and Fleet if there is one near you.

BCI Group 78 is a side terminal battery. I think the battery you are suggesting is a universal dual terminal battery combining a group 34 top post and a group 78 side post.

DT stands for dual terminal. Take your pick on how you want to hook up the cables.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
