I'm still running strong on the stock battery :) soon as it kicks the bucket I'm picking up a braille. Maybe sooner, but i hate to let a good battery sit, lol.

Thanks for the info regarding #35 battery. I will definitely check out NAPA for one.

Back on topic, 151,000km since Nov '05 on my original. Just came out of another winter without showing any signs of weakness.
