I've never bought anything from them, but have often driven past 
Atlantic Batteries at 80 Elm Street in Watertown (near Arlington and 
Arsenal, in a light industrial area behind the Watertown Mall and 
Charles River Saab) might be the kind of place you're looking for.  
(800) 924-2450 or (617) 924-2868 or even battery34 at aol.com.

Good luck.
