Just a reminder. When jumping a vehicle. Connect to the positive terminal first. Then connect negative to the motor or chassis. This is the safest way. When connecting the last connection there will be an arc. You don't want that at the battery. That will have a higher potential hydrogen gas.
On an other note. Summer time is when most batteries go bad from the heat. You might not see the results until a little later. First time when you need the cold cranking amps.
Then on a personal note. Two weeks ago I bought three battery. Wouldn't you know, now I need an other.
Bottom line: It's harder to maintain a battery when there sealed. Not able to add distilled water or acid if needed.
