[Healeys] batteries

[Rich C]

Antique Battery Supply in Ohio now supplies the best of both worlds as far 
as I'm concerned. I recently purchased one of their absolutely accurate 
Lucas style moulded Group 27 batteries with all the correct details for a 
BJ8 restoration, but they have an Optima battery sealed inside the moulded 
Lucas case. The battery has a 10 year Optima warranty, there is no fussing 
with an acid battery, no topping up, no gassing, etc. Unscrew any of the 
Lucas filler caps and there's the bright orange Optima unit inside! Of 
course lots of warning tags and literature about not adding acid or water to 
this case!
Now if we can only get them to install one of these in the 17L series 6V 
Lucas case, and another 17L case that is empty except for the terminal 
connections so it can be installed in series in the car, one on each side a 
per original, we'd have the problem solved for the 2 seater models.
