FWIW (not much), I've been taking the opposite approach. Buy a cheap
battery at Wally Mart or Costco. I found one a few months back for $35 that
starts the project TR3 just fine. Likely it will only last 4-5 years, then
I'll buy another one. Compared to an Optima that might last twice as long
(or maybe not) but cost four times as much, that seems like a bargain. And
if something happens to it, I'm only out $35.
Plus the lighter weight should translate to better performance.
