This whole battery thing has always been to create business for FIRST battery suppliers. These batteries are interchangable when used to start the engines in motorcycles, or whatever their normal use is, and would also be essentially interchangable for our use. Exide got a few years of "guaranteed" business, and now someone else will get at least one year of guaranteed business.
