What is the application? I bought two 6V 17HF batteries from Battery
Warehouse (many stores in Mid Atlantic- may be national) for $39.95 each.
They were dry-charged and the store filled them at the time of purchase.
These were for an MGA. Brand was Exide commercial- no cranking or reserve
is listed on battery.
My MGC batteries wouldn't hold a charge also but I replace both 6v with a
group 26. I bought the highest capacity one I could find WITHOUT a lip or
hold down protrusion at the bottom. ie no die-hard. It fit the battery
tray perfectly. This was less than $50.00 and should simplify my life, as
it is maintenance free also.
I called some places advertised in Hemmings and found Lucas 6V batteries
for around $80-85 but you had to provide acid to fill them when they
arrived.
