"big 3". suggestions for battery

[pike0825]

92 honda accord lx auto f22a1. my sound system puts out 1200 watts at most. so far upgraded to 130 amp alt, 4 gauge wires and 0 gauge grounds. now im going to get rid of my everstart battery. ive been wanting an optime yellow top but they are too expensive. what are some other really good powerfull batteries that will fit my car.

I have an Optima red top. Works just fine for me, but if you have a system and plan on running it off of the battery for any extended amount of time, get the yellow top. It's designed to be completely discharged.

Diehard platinums are good

im willling to spend 150$ at most. i know the yellow tops are 200$. just wondering if theres anything compatible with those batteries and are bit less expensive

[jewelproject]

have you looked into KINETEC batts? sometimes they are cheaper on ebay.

I'm running a Dekka AGM battery that I picked for $100, not the most powerful CCA but Dekka rates CCA at 0 degrees whereas other companies CCA is rated at 32 degrees. I've had it 3yrs with no problems (a 2 week stint in Ottawa during February and it worked fine), my previous Yellowtop didn't make it 2yrs.

take a look into shuriken batts i know u said $150 but this batt is just over that and the specs are beast and should fit heres a link http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_...N-SK-BT60.html

Why not just wait and save the extra $50 and buy the Optima yellow top. You know the saying DO IT ONCE DO IT RIGHT.

Optima surken....whitch is kinetic. xs and stinger which is also xs are all good batts

[namiata90]

well it all depends on what the owner wants to buy. every one has there own favorite batts.

I use Optima red tops in all my rides and run fairly large systems. They are very good batteries, but as other have said it depends on your plans. There are other good batteries available.

I have a exide battery. it can really take a beating. i sit in my car and listen to the radio up loud with the car off for like 30 minutes at a time and the battery always turns the car over like its new.

I work at Big Boy, and last sunday they had a car show. There was cars there with massive sound systems, and most of them had kinetic.

in the drag racing world optima batteries used to be the hot ticket... but a few years back the quality went right in the toilet. they won't even last a year anymore for anyone. aren't you guys having the same issues? i probably would look into something different if it were my money...
