I know you're in good company and think that's why the OEM battery has such a bad reputation. People have forgotten that most batteries are not maintenance-free.

Yeah, I stop at removing it. The seals always break down once you start fucking with the posts. Mine still looks all shiny and new.


Ok, back to work for me. See y'all in a few hours.
