Well, it did not survive the winter, even though it had a battery tender on it all winter. I am using a temporary battery for now, just a top post with side post adapters.
I bought this in the 90's. It came dry and was in a Delco box. I bought fresh acid for it in 2012, charged it up, and it worked fine until last October. Can anyone tell me if it is an NOS battery? I don't know if they were even making repops back then. I know the repop they make now is a gel cell battery that does not take acid.
I am still considering cutting this open from the bottom and installing a Braille battery inside. I have a Braille mounted remotely in my 69 Opel GT. It rarely gets driven, but the battery holds a charge really well. Whenever I put a tender on it, it shows fully charged in an hour or so. My other batteries seem to take a day or more.
