Thats a loaded question. Ballistic is having issues with their batteries, i have also seen issues with anti gravity as well. If weight isnt an issue go with a deka

Tried a lightweight shorai for a couple years, my total loss ate 3 of them before i gave up. Now i run a deka 9lb. Wont go back.

I forgot!
I am still using a shoria but they are susceptible to water intrusion and that kills them. A 9 lbs deka is probably the best battery I have ever used and it was abused for 5 seasons before I retired it to my atv with a charging system. It died a year later after that.
 
Since ballistic warrentied my first batch (faulty cells) I haven't had a problem. You just can't let them completly drain out.[/QUOTE


Well since ballistic warranteed my first round they wont answer me for my second round and i am not running TL. Buy anything but ballistic they suck. Thanks for the loaded question lmao.
 
thank you very much,and I m sorry I did not read my self before I send the question, , the rickter mechanic told me they used the anti gravity battery for 4 days before recharging the battery, but what is going to be results after 3 months of used
 
I talked to John At JSS about this a couple weeks ago. He recommended the Odessy (F@CK just threw away the piece if paper I wrote it down on the other day) ??????. Shoot him an e-mail. Im sure he'd be glad to share.

He said he used it with this total loss system for about 5 years and it likes to be thrown on a reg charger charging at 2, 5, + amps or whatever. Not a trickle. This is nice too because it charges fast and is build and suppose to be charged like that.

Hands down, whatever the battery is, I'm buying it as my next. I think he said it was in the $120 dollar range.

Jetworks for power and longevity but they weigh a ton. Deka etx9 is what I use for light weight but only good for about two tanks of gas with a lot of starting.

I've been using the Odyssey pc 625 batteries for the last 15 years. Go to Amazon.com and you'll see it there for $110 with free shipping. Also try Ebay, just put pc625 in search

The odessey pc625 weighs 13lbs but it comes with a 2 year full warranty.

If weights not a problem it looks like a decent battery that lasts. Im going to be trying a lightweight battery this year

I've broken 3 Odyssey PC625 a few years back. Their warranty isn't worth the paper it's printed on.
Overpriced junk IMHO


Same goes for Ballistic.

What issues have you seen with the Antigravity batteries? I've been curious about them... I don't run total loss but would like a lightweight quality battery that will last and has plenty of power to crank a high compression engine for a while incase of water intrusion that fouls plugs on the beach
 
What I can see the Deka xtx9 ,the jetwors and the odyssey are the most popular I bought the ski with total loss system and it had a Deka battery with it, but my freind is having a odyssey , it starts all the time for the past 3 years with out TL system

I could get 3 full days of riding out of my Odyssey PC625 without charging, then it crapped on me just outside of the warranty. Lightweight batteries are a total waste of money IMO.

Jet works are great but heavy, anti gravity so far 7 tanks of fuel before recharge, ballistic testing soon, had 1st run of ballistic and they died in like 2 weeks, they made me new ones, ill post the outcome
