Absolutely worth the money. And not that expensive anyhow -- $79 from sunnbattery.com for a PC545 is about the lowest price I found.
They last a lot longer than a wet battery, and you don't have to deal with distilled water and maintenance etc. I had some carb/choke-type problems once and that battery cranked and cranked, no sweat. I was impressed.
Back home after an eight-month tour I put the Hawker PC545 on a BatteryTender and it was fully charged in just one hour. That's really good -- and I'd run GPS directly off it for eight months!
