Wally World, Batteries Plus, Interstate Batteries. I've been using Batteries Plus of late. They have the things in stock and their prices are reasonable.

Ah, I see you got the Perma-seal battery, no vent required like I did.

The cheap regular battery is about $5 less.

Are you sure? The one he quoted is the sealed type with not vent.

No battery is required, but a dead battery is better than no battery because it helps rectify the DC votage.
