ive had one in the wifes car now for about 5 years, running an mtx81000d and a cheap 4ch bazooka amp.

imo its been a great battery.

i have this sam battery cause mine died and i had to get a replacement but i didnt have the money for the dekas i want. i see bad voltage drop with this battery and my big three is done and a stock 105 amp alt. im only running 100o watts rms at the moment so i wouldnt recomend this battery for the price. for 75 bucks more you can get a intimadator 9a31 which i plan on getting two of soon because im upgrading amps/ subs soon. idk tho for the money i dont think this is worth it

why bother when some of us dealers will sell you a good AGM battery for the same price that is 10 x's better than anything stock?

 

[Isaac_62 10+ year member]

do U have a battery for this price that has top posts and side mounts that will fit in my stock battery box for the same price or less??? max dims are 11x7x8??? LEt me know what kind and where i can get it... Thanks

I have top post only but it will definately fit, you can buy a side post convertor for them as well or make 1 from a piece of copper or brass. or just use a standard 6mm bolt and ring terminals. the dimensions are :

Size: 7.75”X6.75”X5.25”

Weight: 25 lb

Cranking Amps:950

Amp hours: 35

it is stronger and better than 2 of the duralast or red/yellow top batts for car audio. they recharge 10x's faster and last alot longer. they are 130 shipped pm for info.

Anyone else have anything??

lol no it isnt an agm lolz. who told you it was? what they consider agm in the auto industry is not even close to what car audio agm stlye is. the die hard is a hybrid agm not a true agm.
