Hi, I'd like to replace my OEM battery, cause it died. I'm looking at Shorai website and I see 2 compatible batteries: 1. LFX18L1-BS12 5.83x4.13x2.6", weight 2.19 lbs, price $154 2. LFX21L6-BS12 5.83x5.51x3.23", weight 3.03 lbs, price $187 http://www.shoraipower.com/images/product/lfxspecs .pdf The replacement battery YTX14L-BS is 6x5.75x3.44", weight 9.34 lbs, price $47 http://www.chromebattery.com/m00003-16212.html Looks like number 2 is closer in dimensions to the SLA battery. Should I buy it? |

Get number 2 both will need foam that comes with them to fill the hole but the second option contains more pooowah |

Why is this important? It's more expensive to buy from them, and not from a reseller. |
