The previous battery in my Grand Prix was an Optima Yellow which was installed in 2008, so it lasted for almost 12 years. Now it seems the best on the market is Odyssey. So I bought one and now my car starts like it should again: instantly. Paid almost $300 for it but it's good insurance from getting stranded somewhere.
I'm sold! I just told my mechanic to change out both Champion wet cell acid batteries to the Odyssey Extreme Group 65 batteries in my F250 7.3 liter Super Duty diesel truck!!!
Its all I buy. have many of these batts. the two oldest are 12 years old. Still operate 100% after 10 years of service running a hydraulic pump on a trailer over 100 cycles per week. NOT ONCE HAVE THEY EVER WENT DEAD FOR PUMPS OR STARTING MY TRUCKS! The one thing I have found that is worth the money!!!
outstanding product, using this in a professional car starter pack for several years; after changing the dead hawker 12V 16ah with another brand, it wasnt as nearly as powerful as the Hawker was. Enersys pure lead is worth its money.
Interesting video I liked it and it looks like an awesome product. I saw odyssey batteries as a sponsor for NASCAR phenom Hailie Deegan Thank you for making an awesome product and for sponsoring her endeavors
Great video and demo, I am extremely impressed with the manufacturing process for Odyssey batteries and that they are still made in the USA, and are of the highest quality. What is the recommended voltage output for an alternator when using a AGM battery? I recently found a website selling custom 250 amp and 350 amp alternators with 14.8 volt alternator voltage regulators for AGM batteries on GM cars, is that the correct voltage that should be used?
Definitely a unique RU-vid video very unique uniquely American made only for the uniquely quality conscious consumer I hope you like my uniquely written comment
I just installed one in my wife’s and my vehicle. It’s much heavier than the ones that came with the car (factory). It’s very obvious it’s higher quality.
j'ai 1 odyssey 34R-PC1500 sur mon Nissan pathfinder 2005 et ce sont les meilleurs batterie actuelle. j'ai eu des Optima et que des problèmes dès qu'il fait froid il y a plus de jus. l'Odyssey à moins 35 degrés rigole, elle fonctionne à merveille. Je vous les recommandes, l'investissement en vaut la peine, merci Odyssey
The video looks great but I have had two Odyssey batteries before & they both failed & 2nd within a year . The first one was replaced under warranty ( thank you ) . I had way lesser lead acid batteries last longer . The second battery was with out a doubt properly maintained but still failed by not being able to charge .
Johnson Controls bought Optima batteries and moved manufacturing to Mexico, I was watching a video by Scotty Kilmer that stated they also changed the type of lead used and is using an alloy mix which lowered the quality and longevity of the battery, yet their prices have not decreased only their profit margins have.
I really love the video I Live full-time off grid with a true deep cycle batteries and my question is your battery has a 1 mm thickness for the plate and I'm told that this is not good for solar as the plates will warp that's my question is this true or faults
I use odyssey battery’s in my Harley motorcycles. I’ve had them last 10 years. On 2 different bikes. And 12 years in my Silverado. Still hurts to pay that much for a battery tho.
400 cycles to 80% DoD but how many cycles to 50% DoD? The industry standard normally states/recommends 50% DoD max. Can I correctly assume about 700 to 800 cycles to 50% DoD? Also, what is actually happening to the battery that it limits the # of cycles? Which part of the battery is "wearing out"?
I just watched an Interstate Battery video that was red exactly the same way 🤨🤨 maybe it's like french fries at fast food places and everyone has their own way of doing it even though the end result is the same product lol
Had an Optima Yellow Top in my 2011 Tacoma from new. Lasted 8 years, but I've heard since they moved to Mexico, the quality has gone into the toilet. Odyssey Extreme is the way to go.
Spoke to Bruce and Kathy a few times. Kathy in Tech know's her stuff. I will try an ODYSSEY one more time but this time I will put a PowerPulse PP12L on it to hopefully make it last. ODYSSEY said they tested it, but didn't see any benefit........ Another thing Kathy stated is to NEVER use any charger other than their's to charge these or the higher voltage will destroy the battery....... but they have a list of approved chargers: www.odysseybattery.com/documents/ODYSSEY_approved_12V_chargers.pdf 2020 Approved Charger list: www.odysseybattery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ODYSSEY_approved_12V_chargers.pdf
@@Jeff-sc1df From what I remember their tech support said it's critical that a car's alternator also NOT charge above 14.7-14.9 where many car-chargers will go above 15V during the different charging phases and they're charger have a charging "algorithm" or "program" that prevent over-charging which is why they have their chargers built to their specs. by Schumacher , at least they used to. I think it has to do with how thin their lead plates are and over-charging will overheat them. From what I remember their technology is ultra-thin plates this way they can stuff more in their for higher-capacity-longer-life.... Here''s their new approved charger list, so they definitely have voltage requirement along with I think at a certain pulsed frequency to desulfate them: www.odysseybattery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ODYSSEY_approved_12V_chargers.pdf Here's that tech-document on not charging above 15V. so if your alternator does, it will eventually ruin their battery: www.odysseybattery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ODYSSEY_Battery_Reconditioning_Charge_Procedure.pdf
@@Jeff-sc1df Here's that tech-document on not charging above 15V. so if your alternator does or your regular battery charger does, it will eventually ruin their battery: www.odysseybattery.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/ODYSSEY_Battery_Reconditioning_Charge_Procedure.pdf
@@Jeff-sc1df ....I think they're ONLY concerned about voltage, not amperage or a hi-output alternator..... I don't thin hi-output alternators increase voltage, or at least they really shouldn't unless they're meant to charge some special kind of audio sound-system battery, but I don't think.....have to check with the alt. mfg. or again check with Oddessy Tech assistance to see if a hi-amp alternator would ruin their battery.....
I wonder if these are still made in America with 9.99 percent pure lead from America? I thought the greenie meanies ran all the North American lead smelters out of business years ago (since this video). Need a new battery for my Can am Outlander. Just doing my research since these are available, along with AGM, and Lithium batteries.
Optima batteries used to be awesome but their quality has dropped over the years. What is the warranty on the Odyssey battery anyway? I've always wanted one and I can see now why they cost so much. However I need to know what the warranty is? Walmart still offers a 3 year replacement on their Everstart Maxx batteries and you can still get them for a 1/3 of the cost of an Odyssey. An Odyssey would have to offer a much better warranty if I'm going to pay triple the price of a Walmart Everstart Maxx battery. 🤔
Great point, I was also wondering why they only have a three year warranty, I use to have the best Interstate battery for my 1998 BMW and it had a 7 year pro rated warranty and 48 month free replacement, but the replacement Johnson Control batteries they use now only have a 36 month warranty.
Is it true that as of 2023,the average new battery sold in USA has a lowered purity of the lead used as compared to batteries sold as of,say,before the Obama presidency?
