Condor Posted August 30, 2016 Share #2 Posted August 30, 2016 http://www.nbc.com/jay-lenos-garage/video/dry-cell-batteries/3082694 Pretty good video discussing the advantages of and charging process of AGM batteries. (I have no connection to nor do I endorse this brand) I'm not sure the Odyssey Rep had his voltages correct. He may have been a sales rep that didn't have all his ducks in a row. Without getting into a big debate, gassing occurs at 13.5voltsDC. And generally the highest charge voltage on a 12VDC battery is 14.2-14.4vdc. We did a group buy a number of years ago with Odyssey. At first they were great to work with, but after the third buy service dropped off considerably. What does get me is when they toss around 12 year life expectancy but only offer a 1 year warrantee. The DEKA AGM is rated higher, and the footprint of the battery is OEM. I've been buying them from Bohannon, and have had great service. Generally 2 days to my doorstep.
