Have any of the list members bought the $95 Prestone "sealed" lead acid baterry w/ built in jumpstart cables and charger? Hey Bullwinkle, LOOK.. A message in a bottle.... HMMMM..... Fan mail from some Flounder? Suposed to have 400cca and 17 amp hours. How does this compare to the optima? The prestone unit is totally self contained w/ carry handle, 12v cig outlet and weighs 18#. Seems like this would be a decent alternate for automatic owners that can't roll start their vehicles and others needing to use cell phone outside the vehicle/ stereo/PA amps etc. Target sells a Car and Driver brand also w/ the 400 cca#, but didn't give the amp hours. it was only $60. Found the prestone unit at Wal Mart. Inquiring skulls want to know.
