Of course, one could make the same argument for upgrading the charging
system.  IMO it's not so much the vented batteries that are the problem, as
the original charging system that forced them to vent.

My battery tray is no worse today than it was when I converted to an
alternator some 20 years ago.  And the conversion cost less than a single
Optima.
