I know they sound pricey. I am going to stop into Costco (borrowed my neighbour's membership!) where it should be a bit better than Cdn Tire.
It isn't just the exchange (~25%) it's also the import costs. The import costs are around 10%+

I wish I could pop across the border Sad I'm about 4 hours from a border crossing. Not worth it for a battery (even 2). Now if I could find a few other items to make it worthwhile.....

My neighbour has offered me a 12V deep cycle RV/marine battery that he isn't using. He no longer has the coach and won't be using it. I'm going to put a charge on it and see how it goes. Might use it until I head down to the US and can pick up a couple fo 6V at a better price. I'll see what it looks like at Costco tomorrow.

I'll take a close look at the battery cables - if it looks like I can use the straight up adapters, I would rather go that route too.
