Default Who makes DIEHARD Batteries

Hey Guys,

Can anyone answer this question. Is DIEHARD the main company or is it a brand name for the battery from a parent company? Thanks in advance.

Diehard is a Sears trademark but the batteries are manufactured
by other companies under contract. I'm fairly sure they've been
made by Exide and Johnson Controls at various times, and probably
others.

I work for an advertising firm, and one of our clients makes "battery separators" and one of my coworkers is doing research on them. She asked me the DIEHARD question. I told her I knew some people that might know.
