All of this talk about batterys got me = to thinking about how I solve the removal problem.  You could get one of those = fancy battery straps, but they never seem high on the priority list.  You = could only batterys that have a built in handle, but I have never seen them in = group 41.  Or, you can do as I have done:  when I first put one in, = I wrap about 10 wraps of reinforced freezer tape around the battery.  I = put a wooden block on top when I start the wrap to get clearance and when I'm = done, I remove the block.  That gives me a reliable "strap" that is always = there when I need it.  Have never had one fail when I used enough of the tape.  Acid dosen't seem to affect the fiberglas type = tape.
