Hey, I'm working with Ohio Generator to figure out an idle voltage issue with my H.O. Alternator, but to test one theory out I need to swap in a normal battery, insted of my optima yellowtop. The readings I need to take would take less than a half-hour, plus the time to reinstall the batteries. So is anyone here willing to let me borrow their battery for this? Or have a fully charged/working battery laying around? That I could use for this? The sooner the better. Thanks, Matthew P.S. anyone interested in an Optima Yellow Top in good condition? I'll be getting rid of it soon for a much higher performance battery.
It would need to be a battery that's in a fully charged state, so it's in "normal operating conditions" thanks though
i have a subaru battery i took out about 2 months ago that has been just sitting in my garage if you want to use it.
did you two figure this out? otherwise, i'm down in Minnetonka with a stock subaru battery in my car you can use for trade of some help installing my new ipod interface... but i gotta get that ipod thing in my car by sat night at the latest.
I got a battery from Justin, it's sitting in my kitchen charging:hsugh: I'm going to toss it in the car tomorrow and take the readings that I need. Thanks for the offer though. I'd be willing to help you out with the iPod interface though. I work a lot, but could probably find some time. PM me if you're interested. (what stereo/ipod interface is it?) P.S. anyone interested in an Optima Yellow Top in good condition? I'll be getting rid of it soon for a much higher performance battery.
it's mostly mounting. it's the Harmon Kardon Car+play. These things came down in price like a BRICK recently. you can pick one up for $100. Best. Stock. iPod. Interface. Evar. i've got a couple of buddies who already offered to help, but i thought if there was a you scratch my back/i scratch your back solution that helped both of us, i'd do it. BTW... how much does the optima weigh? compared to the stock WRX battery?
