Yep. My first and only one that lasted over 10 years. It came out of a cop car my friend's father gave me. He was a mechanic as a local city yard. They swap them out every two years. This was way back around early 2000s. No spill was best I liked about these batteries. All the ones I bought later would die just under 2 years, Red top seem to last a tiny bit longer then 2 years, but all my yellow tops were like clock work, dies right at about 2 years, in my daily drivers or 911 that are on battery tenders. Will not buy them again.
