  Read the other posts about the Odyssey batteries.

Do a search on the forum for 'Odyssey' to find them all.



  The thing about the Odyssey batteries is that they are the only ones to provide both super cold-cranking power together with deep-cycle capacity for winching, etc.



  With Optimas and all the others, you have to choose one or the other. You cannot get both.

I have both! In my vehicles that only require a starting battery I use the Optimas, but under the Hood of my H2 for winching and starting only one battery has a home...ODYSSEY! No other battery even comes close to it's extraordinary abilities...not even the Optima! I even have Odysseys in both my 800 HO MXZX Ski-doos and soon to have one in my 800 Outlander ATV, no other battery can deal with the vibrations of off-roading and the pounding of jumps as well as the Odyssey! In my book they win no matter what!
