My Odyssey 680 is still cranking like a champ for 2 years. the temps here in nyc have been in the teens for the last few days and i have no issues.

 

Hmm...not sure, you'll have to poke around in the site. What I did was search for the equivalent named-brand battery and this site came up in the search results.

I'm have been running one in the S14 in NYC for a few months now without any problems. Cranks the car in this weather, has 420CCA, weighs 13 lbs, and cost $70 w/shipping.

 

i have a odyssey PC680 that i bought from someone, this is the first winter that I've used it and i am gonna switch back to a stock battery relocating it in the trunk. It just don't have enough cold crank to start the car, I can't just jump in the car and start it, I have to turn it on ON for 15-30 sec before i start it. If the battery is happy it could slowly crank my car and start it, if is not it would just make a CLICK sound and i'd have to jump or push start it. Just wondering people who has Mini batteries, when you turn it on ON, what's the Voltage say on Your volt gauge?

 

F*CK small batteries. I hate them with a passion. I have to keep a jumper box with my at all times. I don't trust that POS.

 

i have a jumper cable in my car all time now.. i am just gonna put a regular battery in the trunk.

 

I used to do that but my battery died on me so many freaking times I bought a jumper box for the ease of not needing another car for a jump.

Oh and btw, I'm on my 3rd or 4th mini battery.

 

that really sucks, i guess it's time for me to get a stocker batter and throw it in the trunk so i won't have any problems anymore.

 

I've owned an:
Odyssey 680 = worst < 6 months. Would not hold a charge.
AMS = not as bad as the Odyssey, but still only 6 months. Would hold a charge for 2-3 days.
Baker = best, a little bigger in size. had to adjust the AMS small battery kit to fit.

IMO the best option is not to go with a small battery on a DD.

 

I'm done with mini batterys untill there is one that can really hold the charge . I will sacrifice and just relocate the stocker in the trunk evo though I'll be adding another 30 LBS . this is my second mini battery . First, I bought the kit from buschur and that one lasted exatcly 11 months and now I have one from a local shop here and just took a crap on me after 6 months.

 

Yeah - for a DD, why bother with a mini battery??

Mine is still kicking all of these years because I keep a trickle down on it through the winter. It's mostly a track car

 

Smart move. The net mass movement of relocating a regular battery from the front to the rear is better than having a mini battery in the front, and naturally, it creates no mini battery related headaches and b.s.

... but you will have a problem getting to 700whp with the gear in your signature, but that's another subject.

 

I had the AMS battery for 3 years and no problems.

 

you are one lucky man!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Maybe.

 

I have a Braille battery and its lasted 2 1/2 years in the Chicago weather. I still have a jump box with me in the winter time though just in case.
