Not a surprise. My experience was buying a battery for a piece of equipment
at work.

I was looking at batteries in the auto store and measuring them to find the
right one.

Salesman: No need to do that, we can look it up
I want to get the exact size
Salesman: We can find any battery
OK, its for a '59 Baker forklift
Salesman: What was the measurement you need?
