You might have missed it...

Without question the best consumer VALUE is a new Toyota battery. It's not even close.


1) they'd have to prove to me that it's not the cylindrical cell kit.
2) there are "grey market" prismatic modules made in China based on the Gen1 design.

I have two. Again, they're junk just like the "D" cells - just a different wrapper.
