    Pulled this battery off the shelf after sitting for 5 months put it in the car and fired right up. Let's see if I can get another year out of it.

    Man, I never thought about running these small batteries, but they seam worth the money every 2-3 years vs. $300 for my yellow optima every 4-5 years or so. Almost balances out in price and saves weight.

It started the car right up even with the EWP running but it rained this weekend so I didn't get a chance to drive it around.

    Can I get some pics of the connector plz sir

    There are no connectors. I'm using the original batter cables directly to the battery like stock.
