It's got 170 cold crankin amps; it a motorcycle battery, not a car battery.

It has MORE than you need for ANY motorcycle that it will fit in.......... and it will last longer than any battery out there.
1787641
Yup, only 170 CCA. It is a great motorcycle battery; however if you need to start a car in cold weather this doesn't have enough power.

This tester will not test car batteries it's designed for AA, AAA's, Button batteries, hobby batteries ,9 volt and watch batteries. For car batteries you need a tester that will put a load on it to test the capacityfor cold cranking. Hope this answers your question.

You're right, but this article has been tested only in my cars are compact cars with 4-cylinder engines 1.6cc, the truth is this is the worst article I could buy on amazon, I thought that being serious stanley brand good, but at this point the computer does not work, damage the battery and adapter 110v to 12v internally.

This is a 12V battery, but for running even a small winch that still pulls ~40 amps I'd go for a bigger battery. This one is rated for 18 amp-hour (hinting it'll supply 18 amps for 1 hour, or 9 amps for 2 hours, etc) and I don't think it's a good idea to pull more than that 18 amp rating for more than a few seconds (like to crank a car).

I think it is cool how Amazon notifies us when someone has a question about the things we have had experience with! So, the battery says: Vinnio R11, L1154 - perhaps you can google that and see the size. But I CAN tell you that it comes with three... which each were dead within one day each, and that included undoing the battery itself at night or when not in use for a long period. Then we figured it was cheap batteries, so a friend bought her regular batteries (sorry, dont know what size/name/cost) from the pharmacy - and they too were only lasting for a very few days. That CAN'T be right. She can hear great - but we are still searching for a battery supply for her that works best. Helpful? Hope so.

I used this battery at about 25F. Battery was in an outside pocket, so it was cold. Seemed like instead of 5 to 8 hours of shooting, I got only 4. I searched literature, and I found a guy who did some engineered tests. At temperatures in the range of 20-32F, he measured a 15% drop in number of shots. The battery should be brought up to a more normal temperature and recharged. Place in inside pocket next to body heat.

This can provide some power for "jump-starting" any car, but realize that the battery in this is the size of what you'd see on a riding lawn mower or generator. Since it's really not that big, I find the "Gives you 500 amps" labels a pretty big lie. I hooked up another brands unit like this to my car and disconnected the regular battery to try it out. It started the car (ford festiva 4cyl), but the starter was slow barely going. I believe this has a 18 amp hour battery just like mine. If I had a fully drained car battery (like from a light left on all night) and I left it connected while hooking this up, I'm afraid the drained battery would "steal" most of the charge from this battery and probably make both too weak to start the car in as little as 30 seconds. So I'm not keeping my hopes too high on these, especially if talking about a fully drained car battery (whereas if you left lights on while in a movie for 2 hours it has a good chance of starting it). Feel free to look at reviews (both some low and high ones) and see if others suggest about the same thing. Also FYI if you want a way to compare these to your car/truck battery, here's one OEMs definitions of rating batteries: CCA (Cold cranking amps) = The discharge load measured in amps that a new fully charged battery can deliver at 0 degrees F for 30 seconds and maintain a terminal voltage greater than 7.2 VDC. CAA (Crank assist amps) = The discharge load measured in amps that a new fully charged battery can deliver at 70 degrees F for 5 seconds and maintain a terminal voltage greater than 7.2 VDC. These battery packs are labeled using the CAA system, so to convert to CCA dividing the "500 amps" by 6 will give you a closer number (and I get that 6 factor from the 30 sec test of one versus 5 sec, not to mention temp factors).

It is sized to power very small electronic devices. Many things that you would normally power from a car lighter would use so much more power than this battery can supply the battery might not run then at all.

Enough. Not a great answer I know, but I tried to find the answer to this but couldn't. I've owned this battery since July and it hasn't failed me yet. If it even lasts a year I'll be pretty happy with that considering how cheap it is. Recently took me about a second and a half to start it up at ~40 degrees outside after not riding for 3 weeks while home for the holidays. It normally starts up in about a half-second. Hope this helps at least some.

-400 Cold Cranking Amps @ 0 Degree F(10 Hr Rate-Ah) 26ETX30L Dimensions: Length: 6.63" x Width: 5.19" x Height: 6.88"Weight: 21.7 lbsAbove are the batteries size and CCA.......Your bike came with a wet cell battery but guys are using various AGM batteries in the older bikes the dimensions should help you bee 100% sure it will fit

Sorry, but it all depends on cold cranking amps required by your V6. The Odysseus is 170coca. That's enough for my little 2.0L turbo 4, but it's a daily driver, and I put the Odysseus charger on it for top off every weekend.The main reason I run this battery is to save 25lbs from my engine compartment.And come summer, I'll mount this AGM battery under my rear seat.

I have noticed a difference when it is very cold, but it has always started my truck. If you live in a very cold climate, I would buy the red top battery. I wondered the same thing when I purchased this, but I live in Mississippi, so it's not usually that cold here.

It got me started right up this winter when my battery was drained to only 9.7 amps because I have a power drain from my auto start and alarm system.So I'd say it's a pretty good model!Best of LuckJJ

The 1700 is probably meaningless for everyday purposes. What you care about is the base amperage which is only about 440. I have a 300-amp jump starter (with some nonsensical "peak" number) and it will not jump start a very low battery especially in the cold. If the battery is only slightly low, then it would do and in fact I liked it for a while. But over time the need grew and 300 was not enough. So if you want to be sure of getting the job done, go for higher amps like this one. The price is wildly higher than the 300-amp unit I bought, so I will have to give this some thought. But getting stuck when you need to get going, well what's that worth? That's what I'm thinking about... The 1700 is probably meaningless for everyday purposes.

Ten (10) great little batteries, I Immediately tested mine with a multi-meter and all were in super shape, all ten had excellent voltage.I have already ordered more of another type and they were in super condition too and all tested great.The wrapper may be diffent from the package displayed but the battery is the important part.Good luck and have a great new year.

This scale is related to the cold cranking amps of the battery you are testing. There should be a label on your battery telling you the CCAs. So if you are testing a battery with 400 CCAs then you read the needle at the 400 level. CCA is the amount of current a battery can provide at 0 F for 30 seconds and maintain at least 1.2 volts per cell (7.2 volts for a 12-volt battery).

I've only had this battery in operation for 1 season. It's out of the car for the winter. Life has a lot to do with usage. I feel that the life will last for several seasons but obviously it will take several years to confirm.
