What battery configuration are you running ?1,2,3,battery+1, 2 maxwells? Or just the maxwell?
At 21lbs for the ESM ULTRA 31/1800cca and 16lbs for the ESM ULTRA 31/900cca its a big weight savings over 50+lbs for a standerd groop 31.
I called (left a masage)maxwell to find out if theas are suitable as a stand alone for my environment/ old tech vehicle or what size supplemental AGM would be needed to support sub 0f starting. The sub 0f temps make Lixxxx batteries unuseable for me . I'm trying to avoid dual groop31's , or stepping up to a d4 Cat battery the next size up
