[AT] Rewinch batteries

[charlie hill]

Well Ed I can't tell you about the Optima batteries as I've never owned one.
I agree they are too expensive at least for me.  I was offering that tongue 
in
cheek because folks were throwing out so many alternatives so far removed
from the original question.  I will tell you this, the next time I EVER buy 
an
Interstate battery will be because I'm broke down beside the road and that's 
all
I can get.  I've never been able to get one of them to last more than 3 
years and
usually not that long.  I'm not talking about neglected batteries either. 
I'm talking
about putting them in vehicles that are in good condition and driven daily. 
I've NEVER
had any luck with them.    If you like them and have good luck with them 
more power to you.
You don't have to worry about me buying up the last one when you need 
another.

Charlie

Very expensive  comparatively but it can be mounted upright or upside down
or
sideways.
It never needs water or acid added and vibration won't hurt  it.

I will not buy any more of those pieces of junk   they are pricey  too
....   we've had 3  none lasted  a yr...

    have a set of interstates that are just now going bad--  put in service
on a 2805 massey in 1999...  the went back because  some  helper of mine
left the key on over the weekend-- that turned into 2  weeks...   we only 
use
the tractor to run our grain vac  so its  not an everyday runner...
