I have officially 'outsourced' my batteries to AAA. Their battery service came to my house and installed the thing for $190. they got there in 45 min on a Saturday.
It's totally not my M.O. to not research it and figure out the absolute top performing, best bang for the buck etc, but the battery I replaced was also a AAA battery from an emergency install in 2012. it lasted 7 years. no issues whatsoever.
I know not everyone is a AAA member but if you are, a lot of folks don't know about their battery service, which in my n=1 experience, has been very good.
the new battery came with the little plastic elbow for the new vent connecting it was super easy.
