Don't bother getting the smaller yellow tops. Get group31 or bigger.

I'm not sure about an $85 "group31"

You get what you pay for.

get an optima from sears. then can order any size or color & you can get a 10% discount on wednesdays (i dont remember why). make friends with an employee and get another 10% discount.

otherwise, look for a place that sells "Lifeline" batteries. they had a pretty good showing in some testing, here and on the 'net.

[Supa_c 1]

SVR 3000

Blue top 31 is better than the YT

[KickinAudio 5]

SVR 3000??? Where have I been? Dont see it on there site.

And I'll raise bs flag on blue top > yellow top

I read a post on TP about batteries and brands in specific. If I recall correctly, the Kinectics were nothing more than a rebadge of something else. It can be had by the manufacturer for a fraction of the price the Kinetic is actually sold for.

Well, if you get it for the hookup...it doesn't matter

thanks guys

[KickinAudio 5]

I'm pretty sure Kinectic's were designed just for SPL comp cars. I beleive their older stuff was re-badgers.

Stinger batts are basically Odessey batts. There is also other knock off type yellow tops.

edit$38.05 for shipping lol

also i'm still a lil confused, i mean the everstart mxx has 1000cca's

so how is the optima better? Other than being deep cycle?

[ngsm13 1]

go to CA.com there was a Kinetik "group buy" type deal going on...ask Audiolife!!! The prices for the HC2400 are no where near that

I would say get whatever battery fits your budget better, some people have had better luck with the optimas, some with the Kinectics and some with the Odysee.

It's really all trial and error for what ever your application would like better. If you cant afford all 3 buy one at a time, test it, sell it until you tried all of them. and found which is better for you.

And no you dont want the everstart
