Most EverStart batteries are made by Exide with a few made by Delphi.
Johnson Control does not make batteries for Wal-Mart nor do they any longer make Interstate (now made by Exide.)
Common JCI battery brands are Optima and Duralast. New Duralast batteries come off of the same line as the old Interstate batteries with the same guts and warranty.
Since Delphi sold their battery business to JCI 12-1/2 years ago, I doubt that is true. You can easily identify JCI batteries by looking at the vent caps. JCI caps have beveled corners. And JCI does currently supply most batteries to Walmart and Interstate.
