What do you mean by a "Luckas" battery?On a related subject, it has been my=
 experience that the battery, regardless of whether it is a conventional we=
t cell type or an AGM type, needs a maintenance battery charger to avoid ha=
ving the battery damaged due to having the battery sitting for long periods=
 without being recharged.=C2=A0Gary Hodson
