[QUOTE="phyphoestilic, post: 2890255, member: 569258"] Seems to me the Deka is made as a starting battery, while the kinetik is a deep cycle. Capacity wise the 2 Deka's added up would be alot more (200ah) while the kinetik only has 128ah. But Cranking amp wise the kinetik would be the better choice because u can draw more curent quicker then the dekas. 1700 CA compared to the Dekas 1000CA. Weight is pretty much exacally the same. U might save a little money on gettin the Deka's but after buying 2 of course u end up spending alot more. Both batteries are sealed so that shouldn't be a problem. I would get the 2400 as a 2nd bat, and upgrade w/e u have under the hood (a lower model kinetik as well to match ESR ratings). [/QUOTE]
