New battery - What type????

SAV X5 2001 4.4

Need a new battery and the Odyssey PC1700 is out of reach $300.
My option is a WORKER 49-LI for $109 + $25 install (18 month warranty 65 month prorate warranty) from BATTERY PLUS

Any one had experience with the WORKER brand?

Is this a decent deal?

Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

Thank you

It is a Werker...I replaced my orig./oem battery with that brand and model
2 years ago. Works fine...a few others of us here, also have that brand.
The price is a tad high, but it may not be worth it to shop harder.

DIY is also cake, but for $25, it's hard to beat. Be sure they hook up your
gas vent tube, however.
