Some of us Jeep guys on a different forum have been debating them recently.

A lot of people have been complaining has been occuring regarding premature failure of mostly red tops. Hard to say if there has been quality issues the last two years or so. Or if there is some mitigating circumstances that have caused these batteries to fail.

Pontential similar batteries are the Exide Orbital/Napa Orbital and Odyssey batteries.

I can provide a link if interested.

I agree with the others. I have one in my Dak and one in Cindy's Neon.
Plus there small in size and lighter.
