I just went to Grand Oughter and paid 49.00 for an Exide 870 CCA Type
41. I purchased a Sears DieHard a couple of months ago for the 84 and it
was 55 bucks for about 850 CCA Type 41. Either should take you through 6
years of normal use, but I wouldn't trust either one for camping. Anyone
with an 80 or 81 be aware... they use Type 42 I think.
