I have been running a Duracell group 31 AGM from Sams as my cranking battery for the past 18 months, never had one issue with it.

The specs are really comparable to the DEKA 31 AGM


Deka



Duracell

I have ran the Deka intimidators the last 5yrs there is not another AGM battery that is even close to comparable to them. You want to get a battery that has the best "Ah" per Hr, with the graphs we run now days are very amp sensitive. The ones I run are 105Ah @ 20hrs

The Duracell Group 31 AGM is rated at the same. Thats what I run for cranking battery and no complaints, especially at that price.

This is the best battery you can buy for the price. It is made by East Penn who also make the Deka brand of batteries.

Odyssey pc2150 has 2k+ cranking amps for like 5 seconds then drops back in the 1100-1200 range. It's a virgin lead battery which for cranking, is the best.
