Paul,
You can buy motorcyle batteries from 3 amp to at least 17 amp.  I was
in Walmart last week and noticed that they have a new motorcycle
battery that might be a RG.  The box said that it was completely
sealed and was built 'rugged'.  Who knows, it might be a gell-cell
instead.  I need to find out the manufacturer and give them a call.
It comes in 12 and 14 amp sizes and did not feel very heavy; I would
also like to weigh them.  The 12 amp was $50 and the 14 amp was $70 (I
may not have the price right).

Thanks,
Ken Powell

Well then I think battery life may be more like one or two hours
and not five. Perhaps Continental is doing a CD ignition that might
save a little current.
