Thinking of getting this since they are having 20% off....is this the correct one for 2019?

Think I saw a group buy on Northstar batteries in the forum, I just bought one before the group buy, oh well. Love the Northstar so far tho.

 

Yes, that is the correct odyssey battery.

 

Just get a Duralast Gold, or AGM, I'll get you a discount

 

ohh!! What are we talking about here

 

I really wanted in on that group buy for Northstar, but having a hard time wanting to spend $300 on a battery. I think I’m just going to go to Costco and spend under 100 on an interstate 27F. My stock battery is almost 5 years old. Still going strong but I don’t trust it.

 

Mine was stock, gave out few months back, '14 model

 

For not much more you can get the extreme version from odyssey

I have this one, got it from 4wp 2 years ago for around 260 after tax during a sale they had.

 

This is the one I’m thinking of going with. Nothing to spit at! Obviously it’s not the best battery in the world like the north star. But I think it’ll get the job done.

 

That's what I had on my brief '13 before I traded for the '14

 

I had one in my 06 TBSS and one in my wife’s 08 XB right now. They always seemed like a good battery.

 

Yeah, but now I'm at AutoZone (part-time) when not working railroad, and my commercial guy gets me a great commercial discount, all vehicles at home have DL Gold 5yr warranty

 

Pep Boys has 25 percent off Bosch and Champion batteries,plus a $40 Gift Card

I got a AGM battery with 4yr warranty for $156 after taxes,and will result in it being $116 after i get the prepaid gift card

 

Yea I know what you mean, I bought my Northstar right before the group buy, I’m just hoping I get some serious life outta this thing for what I spent.

 

AGM Group 24 Battery $146 plus tax

Then $40 rebate

I can’t get the links to work properly but here is a picture showing the item number and sku

 

Is there any concern over the 2 year warranty? Seems like all of the other batteries have a 3-5 year warranty for the same price or less.

 

$116 for am AGM battery? I haven’t seen that anywhere.

You’ll pay $116 for a basic 2yr lead acid battery.

As for the warranty question,just have it claimed out and get a new one before your 2 years is up. At least that’s what the local Pep Boys manager told me he would do.

Is it the absolute best battery? No

Is it the absolute worst? No

Is it relatively affordable and extremely cheap in cost for $116? Yes

AGM batteries typically outlast lead acids. Typically.

 

I would tend to agree with most things.. but a dead battery out in the middle of no where can get you no where fast. IMO, brand matters for things like this.

 

Champion are made by the same manufacturer of a majority of batteries

Johnson Controls

There’s nothing to be concerned about there. Many different brands have their stickers put on them,but are all made in the same factory.

FYI upon getting home and looking at the the paperwork on my battery, it says 4 year warranty.

I’m not beating up anybody or getting at working anyone into frenzy

Nor am i wishing to derail the thread

I am only pointing out,in my opinion, another affordable quality option for those who may be interested

 

Where does one find the rebate?

Thank you!

Just bought this battery for my 17. Had to jump it tonight. Figure I can roll through two of these for the price of a single NS.

Appreciate you posting.

 

I run a single Odyssey 34r. I run a fridge off of it, sometimes on for 8+ hours without a charge on the battery. I also run multiple lights and power accessories while the vehicle is off and have never had an issue. I'll finish a solar build and second battery this spring.

Yes, that is the right battery for your truck in more ways than one.
