I got the "Orbital" from NAPA. It supposedly needs no maintenance--and costs accordingly. My NAPA dealer wanted out of his and the price was right. No leaks, no problems--and I don't have to stay awake worrying about corroding out my tray when I ignore it too long! Mine was about $60. |

You could always go with an Optima Red Top. A little more charging power for accessories like lighting or a winch. |
