Here's a question for yall.
I've recentyly bought a couple of Yuasa batteries for ATV's. If you buy the actual Yuasa battery, it comes flooded. If you buy the Honda part, you get a Yuasa battery that is empty, with the battery acid separate in a set of tubes that allow it to be easily dispensed into the battery.
I picked up a couple of extras, and have them on the shelf. That way, whenever I need a battery, I will have one, and it's not sitting there letting time slowly kill it. If I don't need to use one of them for 10 years, I can fill it in 10 years and will have a new battery.
Does anyone know where you can get automotive sized batteries like this?
I have a LOT of vehicles and tractors, and keeping batteries on all of them has become a bit of a PITA. I live in a small town with one auto parts store (Napa) that isn't open on the weekends. I'd love to be able to put a couple of new batteries on the shelf to have when I need them, if I could store them dry where they aren't being killed by father time.
I'm currently running Optima Red Tops on most of them. They're getting long in tooth, and since the Johnson Controls buyout they aren't what they used to be, so looking at going to hopefully a severe duty farm battery, but would love to be able to get one dry. Need side and top terminals, as 3 of the vehicles have winches and I'd prefer dual terminals.
