Hey everyone. So there is a Ton of info floating around the internet about what battery is best, and what battery type/size/brand you should get. A lot of people seem to like the Odyssey brand/Sears Die hard platinum (odyssey with different label), but, I know a lot of people who just can't justify spending around $300 on a ABM battery, and have been well served using lead acid type batteries.
To eliminate any internet hype, and prove/disprove what really works and what doesn't, lets post what batteries we have used OURSELVES and how they have performed for us.
Lets please Post only:
Batteries we have used PERSONALLY (NOT WHAT YOU HAVE HEARD).
Brand, Type, and Size. Plus the use and weather conditions it has endured (in use or parked).
Kind of vehicle it is/was in and accessories in your vehicle that require your batteries power.
I think that about covers it. I think anyone in the market for a new battery would be well served with some hard data that they can reference. I'm also particularly interested in if the Sears die hard platinum group 31 will really last the 8-10 years that people say they should last (anyone own one for this long?).
Thanks for anyone's input
