Battery reproductions experience
Is there and advantage of buying from Antique Auto Battery directly??
Who has had good experience or bad experience with Restoration Battery and Antique Auto Battery. Restoration posts a GM license, NCRS approval and such.
What has the experience of the forum been?

I have an R89W from Restoration Battery. I've had it about 2 years and been pleased with it. I check it about once a month to see if it needs a charge, and I've had to charge it a little while just once.
My understanding is it's a modern battery in a reproduction case.
If judging is in your future I believe you'll find that the 'W' battery does better than the 'S' battery. This is because the "W" case is a more accurate reproduction than the 'S' case. The case can be date coded too.
If this battery is for your 72 bb I think the 'W' is the choice for you anyway.
