EFX Batteries by Scosche

Does anyone have experience with these batteries?



I wanted to pick up this one because it matches my red theme I have going in my car more than an Optima Yellow Top. More information can be found here

It's a dry cell battery which is also capable of deep cycle like the optima yellow top. Thoughts?

Well you can just not as much as a Yellow. And if its a second battery they seem to work pretty good. I also know some companies make battery covers that can be colour match to suit your layout or style.

Also check out the cost of a Hawker Odessey (sp?) .... they have a red top and are generally cheaper than the rebadged alternatives.

I just checked out the Hawker Odyssey line and they have a good one - PC1500



I found a Canadian distributor and the price for 2 odyssey's is cheaper than 2 efx's. Specs for the EFX can be found here

Thanks, JordyO!
