Need Voltage Boost for AGM Battery with 2017 Lexus LX? (3 Viewers)

[dillmaclg]

Hi, I have a 2017 Lexus LX570 that is due for replacement of the wonderful original equipment Panasonic starter battery that is still going reasonably strong. I want to replace it with an X2Power Premium AGM and I've read postings norting that I would need to increase charging voltage with an adition like VoltageBooster PRO Spark. I see that it is only specified for the LX570 through model year 2015. Also I am measuring 14V to 14.1V charging at idle. Was a change made to the LX570 charging system after 2015 that precludes the need for Voltage Booster with AGM battery? Thanks for any experience & advice that you could offer.

AGM Battery Voltage Boost Regulator (GM 12135037)

*Expect 1-2 week lead time when out of stock Adding a voltage booster is a necessary upgrade for anyone running an AGM battery in their vehicle. Cruiser Patch uses this GM diode to increase alternator voltage output at idle and under load from 13V to 14.6-15V. See photos for proper orientation...

Thanks for feedback, I'm not clear if I need it for AGM battery in the 2017 LX.
