What's a good lightweight battery to get? I was looking at the larger Odyssey ones (which are still tiny) or someone here mentioned the Holley Annihilator battery. I think mine died and luckily I have another car so I don't need to get one right away, but I have to decide really soon.
First off, thanks for the link. I'm actually picking up a new battery really soon.. so this works out good.
I don't need anything "super light", but lighter is nicer. Do you think the PC680 @ 280CCA's would be sufficient even for a colder climate like western NY?
I was going to put in the trunk but the carbon fiber tray wasn't strong enough for the stock battery. If I was to do it now, I'd just go ahead and make it strong out of metal.
I have subs back there, but I can reposition them. If and that's a big if, I get a charger, I want to make a bathtub intake and so I'd need the area where the battery sits.
I don't think 10 lbs will be felt in anyway and if you're weighing that versus getting stuck in the snow, I'd probably go with the security of a larger battery. Even their PC1200 is about 10 lbs lighter than stock and that's rated higher than the stock battery. The PC925 seemed to me, a good middle ground, a little less powerful but a whole lot lighter.
Thanks Billy. I just don't know what I'll really need to get me through winter over here.. and I'm not very knowledgeable about batteries (like there's a lot to know?). I'm pretty much looking for a replacement, and the lighter the better. I've considered moving it to the trunk anyway if weight ever becomes a real concern.
