EnerSys has introduced its Odyssey 65-PC1750 battery, which combines deep-cycle capability (creating a quick-charge characteristic) with five-second cranking power, which is said to be double or triple that of conventional batteries. A 12-volt dry-cell battery, it provides simple constant voltage charging with either an alternator or an independent charger. This creates no limitation on the inrush current, resulting in a quick charge.

It’s ideal for heavy-duty applications, the company says
The battery offers rugged construction with superior vibration resistance, EnerSys adds, so it can tolerate
exceptional mechanical abuse.

The new 65-PC1750 battery features cold cranking amps (CCA) of 930. Additionally, it offers 140 minutes of reserve capacity and a deep-cycle capability of 400 cycles at 80% depth of discharge. The battery weighs 60 lb and measures 7.40 in. in height, 7.20 in. in width, and 11.80 in. in length. It’s a direct replacement for BCI Group 65 battery.

Other features include a promised six- to-10-year service life, a two-year storage life at 77°F (25°C) and a 12-year design life. It is corrosion-, explosion-, and vibration-resistant while also being leak-proof, according to EnerSys. It’s covered by a four-year free replacement warranty.
