So my 2011 forester came with a battery with less CCA and RC than the current one in my 12hp tractor.(yes really)
Apparantly we get a "special" even lower capacity battery for having a MT.
The battery isnt labeled with anything useful but lookups on model 55D23L show its a 48AH and most people think its around 350CCA.
Made by panasonic
My issue is I do alot of short trips. And If I listen to the radio for 10min it barely starts in the winter. It really grunts even at 100% charge.
kinda urrg-urrrg-urrrrg Vroom.
Thinking about replacing my tractor battery that has seen better days with this one (tractor requires about 200CCA)
now the question:
which one do I buy for my car
Group 35 is factory size
group 26R is optional slightly shorter lengthwise
ok now if you read all that here is my problem
I wanted the G35 silver
its 500CCA 625CA 80m-RC about 75$+tax after deal
The G35 Gold is
640CCA 800CA 100m-RC about 87$ after tax
that seems simple because The gold is clearly a better deal even though I usually prefer silver series.
then add in the 26R battery that should fit(its slightly smaller)
G26R silver
575CCA 720CA 81m-rc final price 67$+tax
which one would you get? and why.
optional if you know another battery deal feel free to post a link.
Sears has selected diehard models for 50% off right now but none of the 8 models of diehard that fit my car are on sale...
