I have this battery from Batteries Plus. No problems, no complaints. I have a winch, driving lights and blinkers and I haven't had a problem with this battery yet.

Hands down, no quesitons asked, Odyssey is the best battery around. Pay the extra $$$ and get the best. I had to replace the battery in my DS 650 after 6 months and went with the Odyssey. It lasted 3 more years with absolutely no issues until I sold the machine.
