Well I think it's time to buy a new battery and was wondering the groups opinion on which battery to get. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)
I believe the Odyssey's are smaller and lighter than the Optima's but are there any other differences I should be looking for? Any good deal links would be useful too. This will be going in a 'Semi' DD and the only extra pull I will need would be for a decent sound system. Thanks... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/pray.gif) |

Don't you risk burning out your points if you are running the stereo without the engine running? Seems to me I have heard that caution before. |
