The battery in my RT is showing signs of failing and I need to get one before I leave for Deadwood on July 7. But EVERYONE seems to be out of stock for the Yuasa YTX24HL. What's my best alternative? Anyone have decent experience with PowerStar batteries? How about from Interstate Batteries? I'm having trouble finding a part # for the Interstate one.
I just went with a Lithium but now I notice even that one is unavailable

Did you try BatteriesPlus?
This one might fit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08V5G4Y2D...NsaWNrPXRydWU=Quote:

What about Lamonster, Mac? He has an alternative to the OOS Yuasa, here's the link, https://www.lamonstergarage.com/can-...-free-ytx24hl/.
The local store does have that one. Anyone know how good the Xtreme brand is?Quote:

Decided to take the gamble and buy this one. Local farm supply store has batteries available but I'd have to find one by physical dimensions & who knows how good they really are.Quote:

And forgot to mention the Extreme battery had a 1 year warranty. Every one else was only 30/90 days. Plus there the other batteries AH were less than 350. Ex: Die Hard
I've had good luck with autozone batteries. https://www.autozone.com/miscellaneo...cca/350084_0_0
A little far for me to come get one there! :roflblack:Quote:

After MORE looking I see the ETX18L is the correct size. No wonder it's so hard to find the right size replacement. Numbers are all over the place!
I bought this MOTO-BATT battery from Lamonster Garage in March 2021. It has been a very good battery so far. It has not let me down. I could not find it on
Lamonster Garage website today. But they are in stock on Moto-Batt website.

A few weeks ago, my battery died when I stopped for gas, and my jump pack didn't help. So I picked up a Super Start battery from O'Reilly Auto. So far, so good....
Also Batteries Plus: Duracell
DURAGM-18L-US. 330CCA. Fits w/o the battery bracket on top, lasted 3years & just recently took a dive. Possibly from poor charging while couple (months) long service waits & down time. Lucked out & found a Yuasa replacement locally.
This is what have used for 7 years

Just because it's on the web site is no guarantee it's available in the local store! I'll ask today when I pick up the Xtreme. The first one I was going to buy from them was shown as available for pick up, but they didn't have any in stock. Don't trust the availability indication on Batteries Plus web site. Plus that one is $185. Pretty steep price. The Xtreme is $120.Quote:

The OEM Yuasa is out of stock; but the alternative from Drag Specialties is listed and can add to cart (just bought one the other day from Lamonster). From what I gather, Drag Specialties is made by Yuasa.... so, essentially the same battery.Quote:

When I looked the other day only two batteries came up and both were out of stock. He must have just gotten some in.Quote:
