There's a new type of car battery that I saw a couple of months ago in
an auto-supply store; I can't think of the name of it at the moment,
but I seem to recall it being a sealed battery capable of deep
cycling. From what I recall, it had a slightly oval shape to it if
looking at the top of it. However, it's ratings are a bit lower than
regular batteries: I think the largest one was only about 800 CCA,
whereas my car battery is rated at 1,000 CCA.
