my second odyssey died today. We've been using deka's at the shop, more cold cranking amps (265 v 275). I think that will be my next battery.

I like the DEKA's.....better than the oddyseys Ive had...

the last batt I bought was an "Xtreme" brand.....no maintence AGM batt from batteries plus...

its been great for a lightweight battery! Installed it week before daytona
and no problem....this weekend had a wire come loose but that was it!

the DEKA I have in my fx has been in there over a year now and still working great....

I need to post a pic of my sealed AGM battery. It looks like a Deka (grey plastic body with sealed back top) with a different label. The terminals won't spin and uses NON corroding screws/washers.
It came from Advance Auto parts for just under $90. All the reg lead acid pattery say "power sports" on the box. The sealed AGM says 'Magna Power Sports' with a slightly different colored box. I've been using it since about Nov, with it sitting for a couple of the coldest months.

Edit: found it, it's the bottom one: http://www.advanceautoparts.com/english/productinformation/batteries/subPage/power.asp

Here ya go big guy, this ETX 12 is only 9.4 lb and 180CCA will be a much better choice than the cheapo wet cell units at Wally World.

Here is the ETX 15 that I run for $50.88 11 lbs 190CCA, mine load test at 225CCA. Plenty O cranky and 6 lbs lighter than a stocker. Lose weight and be happy for years if you treat it right.

10 amp hour????

the Jetworks battery is a 22amp hour batt

the jet works batter is 300 cranking amps, and 275 cold

The Jetworks is also only 79 bucks....

If you are not running TL and your charging system is working the only worry you will have with a 10AH battery would be if you drowned your engine and needed that extra cranking time like you would get with a bigger heavier battery. Many of the smaller lighter batteries have plenty of CCA for our engines, you have to make the choice if you want a lighter boat or that extended cranking that you might or might not ever need. I very seldom drown my boat and am willing to take the risk.

I'm running 2 PC625s that I got for 79 bucks a piece. Never had an issue. Crank like crazy. I picked up one of these for the SN for $48.95

Haven't tried it yet, but for the price, I figured what the heck, I could pay that for a lousy acid dripping Neverstart from WallyWorld.

I have a brand new Gruber (exact ebay listing as above) that I bought less then a month ago. Never installed it. Will sell for $53 shipped to lower 48. PM me if interested.

I ran gel batteries for a bit but noticed that they seemed to have a lot lower life than the cheaper wet cell ones. Has anyone else noticed this or did i just not get a good gel cell.

I know my stack of dead Deka batteries is larger than my stack of dead odyessy batteries and there is no stack for the dead jetworks batteries as of yet.
