Between this battery, my volvo electric power steering pump, and the geo tracker alternator (55amp at idle) it will pull this battery down to unsafe voltages in 20 minutes if I hold the power steering pump against the stop as hard as I can (80 amp in this case) while idling. In other words, its fine because I'm sure the pump would have problems in less time than that. Havent run it long enough to need to balance it. Another guy that I race with was running one in his daily driver civic as a test, he left his headlights on while at work one day and killed the battery, like it swole up and wouldnt hold a charge anymore kill, but thats a problem with all lipo batteries. |

I had this same battery. It started the car quicker than the stock battery. I also used the Astro Blinky balancer. My battery didn't survive so well. I have 1 dead cell, but that's how it goes some times. For the price, I can just get another one and not worry about it.

Agree. Until this happened, I was really happy with the performance of the battery. It's stupid cheap for the amount of CCAs it can deliver.

So... buy two, hook one up, put the other in the glove box as a spare?

I have had a Deka ETX20L in my car since September 2012, including about 9 months sitting on the workbench after which it still started the car excellently.
It's tall enough to work ok with the stock tie down (with minor mods), and my local battery recycler gets ~$90 out the door for them. |
I also ran a Ballistic 16 cell for a while that was awesome, but they won't warranty one if you use it in something other than a motorcycle, and they cost an absolute fortune.

They actually came down a bunch. Ballistic wasn't happy with how the product turned out and has dropped the price dramatically, and is going to cancel them when Pegasus sells the last of them.
