Design Advantages
Phenomenal starting power and massive deep cycle reserve power in one battery!
Some batteries provide enormous cranking power. Others, deep cycle reserve power. The revolutionary ODYSSEY® battery is designed to do both.
How is this possible? The answer begins with flat plates made of 99% pure lead – not lead alloy, like many conventional batteries. 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.
In fact, ODYSSEY batteries are capable of providing engine cranking pulses up to 2700 amps for 5 seconds – double to triple that of equally sized conventional batteries, even at very low temperatures. And they can handle 400 charge-discharge cycles to 80% depth of discharge.
This extreme combination of power and performance makes ODYSSEY batteries perfect for a range of applications, including automotive/LTV, marine, commercial, and powersports.

Why Use ODYSSEY batteries
- 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 Tolerance
Operating temperatures from -40ºF (-40ºC) to 140ºF (60ºC) for models without a metal jacket, and from -40ºF (-40ºC) to 176ºF (80ºC) for models with a metal jacket. - Virtually Maintenance Free
Sealed, AGM design never requires watering. - Improved Safety
US Department of Transportation classified as a ‘non-spillable’ battery. No acid spills, no escaping gases.
