I kept putting it off. The old battery is at it's end and one day I was at Block Island RI. The engine took a few extra blades to fire but the battery did not like it. It eventually started, but it was working too hard

Just put in an order for a Concorde sealed extra cranking......Finally !

Why push it .....for telling myself that the battery was okay!

Then there is the night thing.....like if the alternator failed, I'd be lucky for 10 minutes on a reduced electrical load!:(
