I've been noticed that my battery has been getting weak. I'm going to
bring it to my local crappy tire this weekend to have it load tested and
if they can do it, test it with one of those acid hydro meter
thing-a-majigs.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what companies make good
batteries up here?

Canadatire sells its Motomaster batteries, which are Exide battery's.
Sears has its diehard (which i've seen a few die...so um...not impressed
so far). Interstate, I think I can get this at TSC (farm supply store).
I've heard Optima batteries are great (really long warrenties, and are
gelled for longetivity, and to prevent spillage and boilover, but $$$).
Can we buy Optima's in canada?

Thanks for the help guys.

Oh I've also heard of places that 'recondition' batteries. Worth it? Any
experiences?

There are also little bottles of 'battery rejuventor' (sp) that you can
buy, which are I assume just acid that you add to your battery after
some as evapourated over time. Doesn't make sense in my head since if
you have been properly topping up your battery with distilled water to
maintain it, this wouldn't help you. Anyone understand/have experience
with these wonders in a bottle?
