Twice the overall power and three times the service life of conventional batteries
Some batteries offer enormous cranking power. Others, deep cycle reserve power. Unbeatable ODYSSEY® Extreme Series™ batteries do both. Even at very low temperatures, the ODYSSEY PC535 Extreme Series battery has the power to provide engine-cranking pulses in excess of 535 amps for 5 seconds – double to triple that of equally sized conventional batteries. And they can handle 400 charge-discharge cycles to 80% depth of discharge.
How so much power is possible
ODYSSEY Extreme Series batteries are made with flat plates made of 99.99% pure lead – not lead alloy. Pure lead plates can be made thinner, so we can fit more of them in the battery. More ODYSSEY battery plates mean more plate surface area. And that means more power – twice as much as conventional batteries.
Packed with more power
Like many popular spiral-wound batteries, ODYSSEY Extreme Series batteries employ dry cell Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) technology to contain acid, allowing the battery to be installed even on its side. But the densely packed flat plates in an ODYSSEY Extreme Series battery avoid the “dead space” between cylinders in a “six pack” design. The result is 15% more plate surface area — and that translates to more power!
Longer service life
3-10 years of service life to save you time, money, and aggravation.
Longer cycle life
70% longer cycle life than conventional deep cycle batteries — high stable voltage for longer periods of time.
Longer shelf life
Can be stored on open circuit (nothing connected to the terminals) without recharging for up to 2 years or 12.00V, whichever occurs first.
Faster recharge
The highest recharge efficiency of any sealed lead battery on the market — capable of 100% recharge in 4-6 hours.
Mounting flexibility
Non-spillable design — can be mounted on any side in any position except inverted.
Vibration resistance
Design protects against high impact shock and mechanical vibration — a common cause of premature battery failure.
Extreme temperature tolerant
Operating temperatures from -40°C (-40°F) to 45°C (113ºF), for models without a metal jacket, and from -40ºC (-40ºF) to 80ºC (176ºF) for models with a metal jacket.
Totally maintenance free
No need to add water, ever! Drycell design with resealable venting system.
Improved safety
US Department of Transportation classified as a ‘non-spillable’ battery. No acid spills, no escaping gases.
