My dealer wanted $900 for that part + Install.... crazy. It's a fairly easy swap. This Duracell is a MUCH better battery and Batteries Plus will install it free if you're not a DIY type. Swapping a battery leaves little room for error so it's really hard to screw up. B+ also has a power saver tool if you're concerned about that.
BTW - B+ has a 10% coupon at the moment if you give them your email for marketing propaganda.

I bought an H7 Walmart Battery for the 997.2 and it worked awesome. Would need to measure the 991, so here are the sizes of each.
Options:
H6 (48) MTP-H6 10-15/16 x 6-7/8 x 7-1/5 Top
H7 (94R) MTP-H7 12-3/8 x 6-7/8 x 7-1/5 Top
H8 (49) MTP-H8 13-15/16 x 6-7/8 x 7-1/5 Top

Went to dealer to check why memory settings had been deleted as I had heard it might be the battery. Was told that sometimes electronics just reset themselves and you have to reenter your settings. So no new battery for now.

I did the above and am very happy. I wouldn't let batteries plus install it though...I did it myself. Took under an hour. Warranty is great too.
Cheers,
