[Roadsters] My Optima battery finally died

[Alvin Gogineni]

After 17 years, the Optima battery in my roadster finally died.

It happened to me at the best possible place and time: Leaving DWA Cars &
Coffee :(
Turned the ignition and the gauges worked but no crank. Thankfully I was
carrying (2!) jump packs and I was able to jump start.

Last weekend I visited the shop to get a new battery.

Just a simple 51R, same size ( a bit lighter than the Optima). Braille
battery coming once we re-locate.
