yellow tops are more for audio equipment. They are meant to be run for long periods of time without a charge and still be able to crank the vehicle. The red tops have more amps so ensure you always get a good start.

I bought a yellow top because I flash so many files with HPT. The assurance of minimal voltage drop during the writing is what sold me I got mine at Parts America for $189 because I didn't have a core with me. I brought back a crap battery and got a $15 credit. And my warrenty is "lifetime" as well.

Costco has them for cheap; get the 1000 CA. My fuzzy battery cover that came on the stock battery didn't fit, but I could still secure it with the stock mounting bolts.

www.costco.com - I just searched and could not find batteries. And isn't shipping going to kill you on it?

Also, I just checked for warehouses in Maine and could not find any.
