Default CC30H - is there a better battery available ?

Apologies if this has already been cover and there's existing threads - I tried a search here and with the forums URL and Google, but didn't find an answer.

My CC30H's battery lasted 3 years and searching for a good replacement.

I see other brands available including GEL type at lower prices but the dimensions aren't a match.
I'm not too keen on modifying the mount to fit a different size battery.

The original battery is available at my local Lowes and Home Depot at around $80 and I'll go with that if there isn't a better option available.

Edit: I can get a YTX9, 400A LiFePO4 for about the same price as the OEM battery at Home Depot - any reason why this won't work?

Personally, I have no experience in swapping a lead acid to lion, but my first thought was:
Will the alternator and voltage regulator on my engine work with a different type of battery?
Second thought was:
Can my current battery and trickle chargers charge lion batteries or would I have to get new ones?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
