[Healeys] Optima Battery

[Ron Fine]

I think Optima batteries are the best batteries I have ever owned.  When I 
purchased my BN7 in 2003 it had an Optima battery which I guess was several 
years old.  It is still holding a charge today and through the restoration 
of 18 months when it sat on a shelf.  Now, when I haven't driven my Healey 
for a few months I hook up a small charger just to bring it back up to a 
full charge.  For these cars we don't drive every day I wouldn't buy any 
other battery.
