Yeah, those are great! THEY ARE SO SMALL compared to units 3 years ago. Any flavor will do. Even those ones they sell on home shopping networks. Look for a UL seal of approval if you care about your house being a fire free zone, car too.
One caveat, most of these li-poly units will not stand up to in car heat (close doors and windows in summertime). Only a couple I found on ammazzzoniaaaaa are rated for that, which is the point anyway since you'll have it in the car in case of emergency. Look for high temperature resistance ones and you're golden.
The brand I can recommend is Deltran out of Florida but look around and do the homework anyway. Most of this stuff is just stickers on top of components which are identical...
Ohh, the battery in your SAAB is just old (3 years max, should be). Also the battery cables may be corroded if they are still original or your alternator is slowly giving up. Free battery and alternator testing at national auto parts stores.
Cheers!
