Sealed Batteries

[T0nyGTSt]

I think he means sealed vs. unsealed batteries.

If they're not sealed, they give off gas (hydrogen?) - in an enclosed space, it can be explosive.

IN THEORY... 33 owners should only use sealed batteries. But of course, sealed ones are expensive.

How much it cost to send it over to melbourne?

[wrxhoon]

what u mean they are illegal in r33's...this coz they are boot mounted??? if they come standard with them shouldnt they be legal??

cheers...ben.

thats right illegal and dangerous , the ones that come from nissan are not sealed but they have a breather that goes under the boot , like jetski batteries bt here they intall normal batteries .

[heartbrkr]

do you need to replace the mounting bracket, and clamps too?

[(B1) MR_fanny]

[wrxhoon]

just the top bracket you can use the old long bolts , i made my own top from stainless steel .

spot on! this is what i was refering to!

so these are fully sealed and no need for the breather hose??

[wrxhoon]

thats correct craved , they are fully sealed , just like odysey no breather hose , you can mount them on their side if you wish no need to be mounted upright .

[Craved]

nice.. will definately save up for one! but will have to save for connectors too (joy of running 0 guage wire) how big is that bolt into each terminal?

hang on a sec... you said fully sealed & NO breather hose...

so this IS a dry cell battery, right?

[wrxhoon]

its about 6mm , you can probably use the connectors that you hve on the cable now

its what they call a gell cell , just like odysey .

[Craved]

cool thanks.. will check it out!

A while ago i did a group buy on sealed batteries .

Some people have been asking me if i can get them again .

I made some enquiries and depending on interest i can get them but the price is slightly higher $ 140 each .

These batteries are totaly sealed and they are a copy of the oddessy 1200 but without the steel casing .

Anyone interested in a battery ( its a must to have a sealed battery if its the boot , like the 33's and 34 gtrs ) let me know and if i get at least 5 people i'll get then .

Pick up in Sydney .

Any more info on the batteries?

How many CCA's?

I need a reasonably good battery for my amps and subs.

How much would postage be to Melbourne, 3030.

If not too high then i'll take one.

Cheers

possibly interested, based on the details and performance of the battery as compared to the oddessy...

[adznight]

Same, I'm after a decent one for car audio gear too.

Its exactly the same battery as the odyssey 1200 ( odyssey say 1200 cca but thats not true , they are 1200 c.a not cca )

Go to the odyssey website and look at the 1200 cca .

Thre is some pics and a comparo with the 800 ca odysey , i dont have a 1200 here to compare it with .
