Product Description
ODYSSEY Batteries Automotive and LTV Battery delivers the massive starting power, rapid recovery and amazing deep cycling capability that vehicle demand. Whether for everyday or emergency use, vehicles are loaded with more electronics than would have been imaginable just a few years ago. And hobbyist vehicles now include more specialties and specialized power demands than ever before. Fortunately, the ODYSSEY battery has been designed to keep up with the changes. Because its plates are made of pure virgin lead (unlike the lead alloy in most batteries), ODYSSEY packs more plates in. More plates mean more plate surface area, and much more power. Twice the overall power and three times the life of conventional batteries, up to 400 cycles at 80 percentage depth of discharge. These batteries are built for a range of performance from everyday vehicles, classic and antique cars, high performance cars, 4x4 and Off-Road, to modified vehicles. Its construction consists of pure virgin lead plates for maximum surface area and optimized recycling, AGM (absorbed glass mat) design that eliminates acid spills, high conductivity, corrosion-resistant tin-plated brass terminals, high integrity terminal seal, a sealed design resulting in gases recycled internally, a self-regulating relief valve, tough flame retardant cell containers and robust internal cell connections to prevent vibration damage. ODYSSEY batteries beat spiral-wound. Compared to spiral-wound batteries of equal size, ODYSSEY batteries pack 15 percentage more plate surface area into the case. Avoiding the dead space between cylinders in six-pack designs means ODYSSEY batteries deliver more power and 40 percentage more reserve capacity.

 Odyssey Battery April 13, 2010
P. Cooper (Centerville, MA United States)
I bought this as a starting battery for a Kohler home standby generator.
I bought it primarily because my experience with Sears Di Hard batteries was that they failed much too often after too short a time.
I cannot give an honest review at this time because while the Odyssey is supposed to offer a long and dependable service life, it has only recently been put to use.
Though initially expensive, I bought it because it is promoted as being of military grade and rated high for reliability.

This appears to be a great battery and only time will tell hoping it lasts 10 years.
Odyssey PC1200MJT Battery to Replace Optima July 4, 2009
LeGreatOne (DC)

I installed a sealed Optima Red Top 35-910 in my car. The Optima failed, was replaced under warranty, and then the replacement failed, as well. The Optimas did poorly in cold weather and wouldn't hold a recharge.
I purchased an Odyssey PC1200MJT because I need a more reliable sealed battery.
The Odyssey is just a bit smaller in overall size than the Optima, but apparently has more total plate size due to its conventional configuration.
The Odyssey has done well so far, but it is the warm season, so I cannot speak to cold weather performance.
However, the specs for the Odyssey are excellent. It is claimed to accept hundreds of charges without a problem (deep cycle), and to handle very cold conditions extremely well.
In regard to the purchase experience, this is the first time after several years of excellent service that I have been disappointed with Amazon.
The Odyssey qualified for Free Shipping, but I needed it sooner than the typical 5 - 7 days, so I paid an additional $27.00 for expedited shipping. My order clearly stated the total price including expedited shipping, but UPS showed 7 day shipping anyway! I don't know if this was the result of a technical error or what, but I contacted Amazon immediately. Amazon did nothing to correct the problem and would not refund the additional shipping fee! Delivery took a full week.
As Amazon has proven unreliable, I will look elsewhere before making a purchase from now on.
