Genesis makes one. I guess this company actually makes another $$$ version that is re-branded by another company. If you know anything about the battery industry, this practice is VERY common. He said that Genesis is the actual manufacturer, so this version is far cheaper than whatever the Famous Name brand is. It weighs 11lbs. Remember, these lightweight batteries aren't like normal ones, so if you live in a cold environment (Duluth sounds like it!) and need CCAs, don't get one, or keep the stocker as a winter battery. They can also go from full charge to dead as a doornail after two weeks when they haven't been driven. If you do get one, you have to buy the brass posts at the same time too, because the stock posts are too small.

I bought mine from Nino last year for about $100. I think it's a rebranded Genesis battery. It weighs 17lbs (it came with a metal jacket). I live in Chicago so I was worried about the cold weather but so far so good. No problems yet. Nino also offers a 2 year warranty on the battery.
