EXTREME POWER
AND ENDURANCE
INTRODUCTION
The ODYSSEY® battery ingeniously uses Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) technology to offer,
in one box, the characteristics of two separate batteries. It can deep cycle as well as
provide enormous cranking power – it is almost as if a champion long distance runner
and a world class sprinter are one and the same person.
These batteries are capable of providing engine cranking pulses in excess of 2250A
for five seconds as well as 400 charge/discharge cycles to 80% Depth of Discharge (DOD).
A typical Starting, Lighting and Ignition (SLI) battery can do one or the other, but not both.
It is either a sprinter or a long distance runner; ODYSSEY batteries will do both – provide
short duration high amperage pulse or low rate long duration drains.
In order to achieve the full design cycle life of ODYSSEY batteries in cyclic applications
the charge current must be a minimum of 40% of the battery’s 10-hour rating (column
8 of the chart on page 7). Thus the minimum charge current for a PC925 battery in
a cycling application is 10.8 amps (40% of 27Ah). Please refer to Figure 6 of the
ODYSSEY battery Technical Manual for a detailed discussion of the recommended charge
profile for ODYSSEY batteries in cycling applications, and refer to Table 5 for suggested
change times. The manual may be downloaded from www.odysseybattery.com.
WHY USE ODYSSEY® BATTERIES?
GUARANTEED LONGER SERVICE LIFE
With an eight to 12 year design life (float) and a three to 10 year service life, ODYSSEY
batteries save you time and money because you do not have to replace the battery as
often. Since actual warranty can vary with your geographical location, please check with
your ODYSSEY battery representative for the warranty specific to your application.
SUPERIOR CRANKING AND FAST CHARGE CAPABILITY
The five second cranking power of ODYSSEY batteries is double to triple that of equally
sized conventional batteries, even when the temperature is as low as -40°F (-40°C). Also,
with simple constant voltage charging (alternator or independent charger), there is no
limitation on the inrush current, so the user is assured of fast charge recovery.
MOUNTING FLEXIBILITY
The ODYSSEY battery may be installed in any orientation (except inverted) without
sacrificing any performance attributes. Acid spillage is avoided due to the fact that the
electrolyte is fully absorbed in the AGM material, and is not free to spill as it is in traditional
flooded batteries. The valve regulated design of the ODYSSEY battery eliminates the need
for an acid vent tube; eliminating the fear of acid burns or damage to expensive chrome
or paint.
SUPERIOR VIBRATION RESISTANCE
ODYSSEY® batteries have endured rigorous tests that demonstrate their overall
ruggedness and exceptional tolerance of mechanical abuse.

READY OUT OF THE BOX
ODYSSEY batteries are shipped fully charged. If the ODYSSEY battery's voltage is 12.65V
or greater, simply install the battery in your vehicle and you are ready to go! If below
12.65V, boost charge following the instructions in the ODYSSEY battery Owner’s Manual
and/or Technical Manual. Putting a boost on the battery will not damage it, even if its
voltage reads higher than 12.65V.
WORRY-FREE SHIPPING
Owing to the drycell design, the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) has
classified the ODYSSEY battery as a nonspillable, so it may be shipped worry-free
by express service or by air. Please see our SDS for complete details at
www.odysseybattery.com.
LONGER STORAGE LIFE
Unlike conventional batteries that require a recharge every six to 12 weeks, the ODYSSEY
battery can be stored for up to two years at 77ºF (25ºC) from a fully charged state. These
batteries can be stored for two years or until the open circuit voltage (OCV) drops to
12.00V, whichever comes first.
DEEP DISCHARGE RECOVERY
Should the ODYSSEY battery become deeply discharged, simply recharge following
instructions in this manual.
INSTALLATION
Your ODYSSEY battery is normally ready to install right out of the box! Measure
the battery voltage; if it is 12.65V or greater, install; if less, then refer to the
charging section.
ANY OF THE FOLLOWING WILL VOID THE WARRANTY ON YOUR
ODYSSEY® BATTERY:
• REMOVING THE LABELED COVER
• REMOVING OR DESTROYING THE BATTERY’S DATE CODE
ODYSSEY EXTREME SERIES™ BATTERY WARNING – DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF OIL, ORGANIC SOLVENT, ALCOHOL,
DETERGENT, STRONG ACIDS, STRONG ALKALIS, PETROLEUM-BASED SOLVENT OR AMMONIA SOLUTION TO CLEAN
THE BATTERY COVERS AND BATTERY TOPS. THESE MATERIALS MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY
COVERS AND BATTERY TOPS AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
ODYSSEY PERFORMANCE SERIES™ BATTERY WARNING – PROLONGED EXPOSURE AND OR IMMERSION INTO ANY
TYPE OF OIL, ORGANIC SOLVENT, ALCOHOL, DETERGENT, STRONG ACIDS, STRONG ALKALIS, PETROLEUM-BASED
SOLVENT OR AMMONIA SOLUTION TO CLEAN THE BATTERY COVERS AND BATTERY TOPS MAY CAUSE PERMANENT
DAMAGE TO THE BATTERY COVERS AND BATTERY TOPS AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT YOUR ODYSSEY® BATTERY’S TERMINALS!
Remove any metallic items such as watches, bracelets and other personal jewelry
to ensure safe installation.
