Braille are Lithium Ion & Odyssey are still a Lead Acid (Sealed, Pure Lead & Compact like the Optima)


Braille do both. Their SLA/AGMs have comparable cranking current but lower capacity vs. the Odyssey at the same MSRP.

Odyssey have gone downhill for what I gathered at the PRI show over the weekend. They apparently sold to china recently. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

I ran a braile battery in the RX7 project I recently finished. Nice quality and extremely light.

I have a braille in my project car and it sits for months between starts and fires right up without being on a charger.
