Battery Sizes

Just an FYI...
I just ordered a reproduction battery box/cover for my S2 from JAE and asked Jeff about its dimensions. After getting them I wanted to know what size battery I should get. The counter guy at Sears wasn't much help.
In the end I learned that the mysterious "Group Sizes" are determined by the BCI - Battery Council International. You can go to their web site www.batterycouncil.org or go to the GGLC website <a href='http://www.gglotus.org/ggtech/battery-bci/battery-bci-size.htm' target='_blank'>http://www.gglotus.org/ggtech/battery-bci/...ry-bci-size.htm</a> and find a table with the BCI Group numbers and battery dimensions. It will save you a ton of explaining when you go into get a battery and you tell the counter guy, "Lotus" and he gives you a blank stare.
