[QUOTE="GPcarAudio.com, post: 8387910, member: 642141"] Youtube video link below [MEDIA=youtube]yndq8QM26Gk[/MEDIA] Northstar SMSAGM80 Specs, 40 AH 3.8" x 9" x 10" 35 lbs Only loading it down to 11 volts was the target, because when you throw an alternator into the scenario while a car is running/ at charging voltage and amperage you'll be in the mid to high 12s ballpark typically. Will vary based off of the size of the alternator, but regardless, this battery is a beast. 3) 15 second load tests back to back. in about a 1 minute span of time. 1st pull, 11.00 volts holding a 450 amps 2nd pull, 10.95 volts holding just over 450 amps 3rd pull 10.84 volts holding right at 500 amps. not bad for a budget battery. This battery is the EXACT same build design and technology as the Northstar SMSAGM400, only it is 1/4 the size, and under $200. We worked very hard with Northstar to make this happen and the results are outstanding! Enjoy the video. [/QUOTE]
