    Battery

    The original battery to my car finally died about 2 months ago. Made it 13 years, unbelievable!

    I replaced my original with a lightweight Odyssey 925T about 5yrs ago but I still use the original one around the shop.

    I am going the double Lithium route soon, i have had to charge my OE battery a couple times this winter (i.e. it is in the process of dying).

    I am going to do this with two of the most powerful Shorai's.

    13 years is amazing! I just put a Bosch Platinum AGM in mine a few weeks ago. It's a couple inches shorter but otherwise it works fine.

    Been on my 925T about 4 years, great little battery! Only lasts a week or two without a charge as opposed the stock which seemed to have reserves for 3-4 weeks.

    Original battery in my 07 Jag XK made it 10 yrs. It's not made by Johnson Controls which most batterys are.

    I have my 925t available for sale. I used it for less than a month. It's about $50 less than what I paid too
