Have had good luck with the 5 amp NoCo above restoring a couple of my kids batteries - one where the battery hardly would crank the car, electrolyte level had dropped, and a motor cycle battery that had not been used for over 2 years. Brought them back to close to like new.
I always prefered Delco six volt batteries when I could find them . I now mostly use twelve volt batteries that I can pick at Walmart . I don't have to answer any questions about what automobile that the battery is for . Usually if you admit that any part is for a model A Ford , the answer will be that they don't have one . I can pick the battery that I want off the shelf without problems at Walmart . A twelve volt conversion is very simple .
