Auxiliary Battery
My car is E320 2005 6 cylinder gas sedan.
Searching the forum, it seems like Yuasa YTX14-BS is suggested for the auxiliary battery. But, the link is given on the forum for Amazon does not exist any longer.
1. Which one of these is the right one?
2. Is it safe to order car battery online since these batteries have acid inside?
3. I am at Los Angeles, CA. Do you know if any store may carry Yuasa YTX14-BS? I am guessing some motorcycle stores may carry it.
4. Autozone has the CTX14-BS, but it has only 3 month warranty. Is it worth to buy this one?

5. Autozone also has ETX14,this one has 6 month warranty. Will this one work?

Thanks

These guys are in Paramount, CA., and I've ordered from them several times. They also sell on Amazon, but it's a buck cheaper if you order direct and they also have free shipping. They ship quickly so you should have it in a day or two. You may be able to pick up at their location as well, but I would just wait for delivery.
In the event my link doesn't include the selected product, I purchased the "Factory Activated Lead Acid" (It is an AGM) and NOT the gel version. Note: It looks like my link is good as it shows the correct version and price of $34.99 (as of 1/25/2021)

They have the Duracell battery for $125. I am thinking to buy something cheaper than $100. Although, it is a good quality, I can consider it. But, it has only 2 year warranty, so I guess it does not last long.

i was able to drive my car around for days after it went bad. I just kept getting the RED display warning.
The auxiliary battery does not need to be charged to start the vehicle.

Based on the reviews, YTX14-BS is lasting a few years, but I don't know who has it locally. I am sure some motorcycle store has it. But, I have never been to a motorcyle store. I can call a few of them and see if they know anything.
