I want one but I have LS1 electric fans set up in my truck and run with solid power all the time, if the temp is hot, they come on whether the truck is on or not. Ive been running the same Optima for two years with this set up and have drained the battery many many times from leaving the bottle heater or the fans on. Will this mini still keep a decent charge with the fans running like they do? Or would I need to hook it to a 12v source to run the mini?

I trimed the exsiting battery hold down/mount, its keeping the battery nice and snuge. Also used some brass marine terminals that you can get from a local parts store.

Your website pops up as being an attack site! Interested in the batteries. Would probably do the 2 battery deal if you still have it going. Just curious what results you have had from weekend driven cars. Mine is parked at times for up to a couple weeks, all winter it is parked. I drive it when I can, but it sits a lot. Over the winter it is hooked up to a Battery Tender, will this work with these batteries?

I'm actually working on installing them now. I'm welding up an aluminum battery holder for the spare tire area with a mount for my 860 Bottle Heater/Holder above it. The batteries should be mounted up in my car sometime next week. I'll be sure to post some pics in this thread for you.
No problem bro!

I might have to jump on this. I don`t drive the car that often, usually on weekend or every other weekend. Will I have any issues? Have any new models ready to go? Is there an extra cost for certain color? Warranty still the same on new and old batteries? Pm me with info, Thanks for carrying the deal out FOREVER!!!!!!!
