Battery Issue
Hi there! I had a Buschur racing mini lightweight battery on my EVO, I don't know who made it but that battery isn't good enough on my car especially with this kind of season. I want a more powerful but also lightweight and small, do you know what's the good mini lightweight and powerful battery that will not let me down?
I need your help please. Thanks!

The Buschur Battery is the Odyssey PC 680. It has 220 cold cranking amps. If you dont drive your car every few days, it can die pretty easy in the cold. The only solution when going with a mini battery over the winter, is to get a battery tender, or return to the stock battery.

Yeah I have a garage and I also bought a battery charger so that everytime it goes dead I can quickly charge it, but I'm afraid it will be dead completely if I'm doing the charging frequently.
Is there any brand out there that can give more power and more life even if I'm not using or starting the car for a week?

well i can understand ur concerns.... to calm your worries let me tell you i've been using the pc680 units for over 3 years. i had one in my 03' evo that i used for a year in the cold (daily drive - outside), which i ripped out and used in my supra for another year(not weekend car - outside). for my 06 evo, i bought a fresh one (weekend car - garaged). take it from me, pc680 is more then enough for your need as long as your not careless leaving the light on or running some big stereo.
curently 10 month a year i only drive it once a week. the 2 month of snow i dont crank it at all. again, battery cranks great. also my friend drives his dsm that gets driven even less and long as pc680 stays disconnected, its fine. still worried?

I have a Nisei lw kit with the Enersys Genesis battery. As listed I live in sh*tty/cold nj, and barely use the car in the winter. So far so good; the battery is holding up well...knock on wood. Battery tenders are good backup though : )
