Product Description
The Odyssey ODS-AGM42A Extreme Series Battery, formerly known as the PC1200LT, combines massive cranking power with true deep cycle capability. Thanks to its pure virgin lead plates, this battery packs in more power and lasts up to three times longer than conventional lead-acid batteries. Whether you need reliable starting power for your car or truck, or the cycling capability to run demanding electronics in your RV, this battery is built for the job.
With 540 CCA and 1200 PHCA, the ODS-AGM42A delivers the instant power you need to start your engine in any weather. Its robust design is highly resistant to shock and vibration—a leading cause of battery failure—and its sealed AGM construction makes it completely maintenance-free. With a 3-year warranty for automotive use and a 2-year warranty for powersports, you can be confident in its long-lasting performance. Plus, the included SAE posts are removable, allowing you to easily configure the battery for a wide range of applications.
