Canadian content:
I have gone with the advice of some other listserve members and tried out
the Walmart brand for my start battery, due to low cost and high
availability throughout Canada.  They boast a reputable manufacturer; but I
don't remember what that is.

I don't have enough experience with it yet to make a well founded comment.
(Others users were impressed with their Walmart batteries, I believe.)

Also, it's a wet cell; but I can't find that it is vented anywhere.  I
figure it should be, but there is no way to check the liquid level; so I am
confused about it.
