Elvira needs a new battery.

Last time, I just went to the Honda shop and bought an OEM.

What&#39;s available these days as an alternative?

Any suggestions? Recommendations?

			<description><![CDATA[ I just ordered a sealed T shaped battery from the folks on ebay that Danbgt used. Price was $42.99 + $13 s&amp;h. The part number for these batteries is
SHYB16A-A and it is rated at 18ah. This is the only company that carries a T shaped sealed battery now. The local parts house had these for $74.99 + tax so the
one from mottobatteries on ebay is a good deal.

battery in a Miata which I had for 10 years and never had any problems. Maybe it&#39;s still in there with it&#39;s new owner. ]]></description>

<br>
In 1975 my brother, a friend from college and I were on a trip across the country in my brother&#39;s &#39;69 Mustang.  One night we stayed at a KOA campground
in Yuma.  At 6 am the next morning the jets seemed as though they were making a 10 mile run with their at supersonic speeds (afterburners on) and then turning
around and doing it over and over again.  Needless-to-say there was nobody still sleeping in that campground after 6 am.  Perhaps complaints from residents
have... ]]></description>

clocks.  I served in US Naval Air in the 60&#39;s and I LOVE the sound of jet aircraft. Harriers are amazing..... F18&#39;s.... F5&#39;s from the opposition
squadron.... C5&#39;s.......... Army helos from Yuma Proving Ground....... Border Patrol aircraft in the middle of the night...... I love em all. I don&#39;t
care how much noise... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ The last time I was in Yuma, AZ it was 126 degrees.
<br>
When I stepped out of the car, it was just like checking the cookies in the oven to see if they are done!!
<br>
Humidity was zip. I don&#39;t believe one could sweat if they wanted to!!
<br>
Ofcourse, that was in the middle of July.

			<description><![CDATA[ Some of y&#39;all need to start thinking about bedding down your &quot;T&#39;s&quot; for the winter and getting out the old snow shovel.
<br>
Since I didn&#39;t get to ride much this summer, I plan on riding a lot more this fall/winter. (Provided the old wrist gets stronger.)
<br>
Actually, I guess it won&#39;t be that much different since we ride year &#39;round down here. Oh. Sorry Bob.

			<description><![CDATA[ The only reason that I&#39;m concerned about the cranking amps, is because of the colder temps in the winter here. I ride year around and these T&#39;s just
don&#39;t like to turn over very fast when it&#39;s cold. I use a trickle charger when it sits for longer than a week, but on those 40F mornings it still
strains the battery and starter a little.

Don&#39;t care.

All I do know, is Elvira had been setting there for several weeks with a dead battery. I put that cheapo battery on her and it spun her around with enough
gusto to start right up.
<br>
I figger at that price, what&#39;s to loose? I&#39;ll give it a chance!!

			<description><![CDATA[ Thanks for the info, Dan. I noticed that this battery is rated at 11 amp hour and no mention of cold crank amps. The sealed gel battery I&#39;ve been looking
at is 14 amp hour with 200 cold crank amps. The gel battery is $67.95 plus $10.95 s&amp;h. Yours is $39.95 plus $14 s&amp;h. My only question is if the gel
battery with 14 amp hours is worth 50% more than the 11 amp hour battery that you have.

On another note I can still remember hearing Lou chiding fellow forum members for trying to do too much too soon after an injury. I believe that if he were
still here he would be telling you to take er slow.
