Battery replacement is done, thanks everyone. Easy peasy no-contact curbside (in the parking lot) installation. When I saw him do it, it truly was easy and I could have done myself.
The total price will have been about $220, so about $50 more than if I were to have bought on Amazon and done myself, but on the other hand ... three year warranty and if it goes bad during that time, they're local.
Advantage over Amazon is also not having to deal with disposing of the old battery. That can be a pain as many parts stores only take in batteries for the core charge refund from a prior purchase. Down here will take them in at the transfer station, but that would require going during their limited hors open and dropping it off.
Which reminds me, I have several UPS batteries to dispose of eventually.
