Al, If you can force yourself into a wal-mart, their Everstart group
41's are sometimes available in a sealed configuration. I've seen both
sealed and capped.They will replace them free if they crap out within
2 years.  I had one in my van for 6 years before I moved it into the
Aux box. Still there 3 yrs later and working fine.
I also had one die after 22 months.  Got the free swap.
