REFLECTOR: Battery Advice

[John Dibble]

Interesting.  I see that it puts out a volt or so higher than a lead 
battery.  My alternator should charge it as it puts out 14 v, but it 
will charge slower.  That can be a good thing - less overcharging.  For 
the price, I'll let someone else try it first.
