Wondering which sealed battery people are using? In view of my SC install I need more room under the hood so a smaller battery is needed BUT I still need it to crank in the middle of winter and run my ICE (which needs steroids soon).

Cheers.

ive heard that the Odessy Gel batts are great, BUT only good for two years, and when they die, they can go out i a spectacular fashion!lol

Have been thinking the same but might go battery in the boot instead.

the Odyseey PC680 that I have is fine for what I'm doing. I don't have much ICE, so I can't comment on how it might handle that.

Cummins has been running one for a few years now and I dare say Canberra winters are colder than anything on the coast.

cheers,

Go for Power Absorb batteries. Rebranded Odyssey with a much better price tag.
