All is not necessarily what it seems: those "new" batteries are NOS and have been on a shelf in a warehouse someplace for a number of years, and their chemicals might be nearly exhausted. At least that seemed to be true of the one I bought: but it's now acting much more genuinely new after having been reconditioned ($54, including shipping). If an apparently wornout battery comes with your prospective 3400 getting it rebuilt in the first place would be a better investment, IMHO.
