Think its more to do with name and prestige as they were among the first and best but now you have Exxide and the likes, I can get two exxides for the price of one Odyssey and hear nothing but good reviews on them

Mine lasted no longer and performed no better than an ordinary lead-acid battery.

And still going strong Steve,,
But whether they are worth 5 x the price is debatable California F1, 75th 110 "Kermit", 50th Ann V8, 90 V8 Hybrid, 55 Series 1 Main Brian James Trailer Dealer for South West UK |

I had one in my Discovery 1 but as the quote says it lasted the same as an ordinary battery. Very disappointed having spent so much money on it. Cheers Don. |

I am looking into buying all the bits to fit a dual battery solution in my 110 and the costs of the batteries are IMHO extortianate
 . My requirement is that the batteries are the same model (personal choice) and fit in the space allocated in the tray, what do you experienced folks propose as alternates? |
