Bought the batterymart. They show an actual building on their website, the address is something like battery rd if I remember correctly, and it has a warranty.
They have a 5% coupon, and it arrived in 2 days.
Just for fun, I decided to plug a charger into my (original) battery that hasn't been touched since my accident (almost 2 years) and it sparked while hooking up, before the charger was even plugged in. So I have it on the charger and will test with my battery tester for fun.
Soo... just went to the garage, battery charger showed charged, so I unplugged it and turned the ign on. Everything seemed ok so I fired her up.
Cranked strong, normal and fired right up the same as she ever had. Let it idle for a minute then blipped the throttle a bit.
I still have a little work left to do to replace the scraped up bits so I will let her sit for a week or two and see how the battery behaves then. I might just stick the new one on a shelf.
