Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Battery for 348

[Tom Reynolds (kjtar]

Steve,
        I went to the Optima site and checked for Ferrari applications and
found less than success.  What kind of battery do you have in there now?  As
for battery tenders, I have a few Deltrans, I believe, and am very happy,
they charge and then maintain.  Cheap, easy, and Red is Positive. :)
Best regards,
Tom
