The AAPEX ODYSSEY® battery booth no. A1838 and SEMA ODYSSEY® battery booth no. 23659 are slated to feature the company’s debut line of ODYSSEY® battery chargers, which are designed to efficiently charge a variety of ODYSSEY® battery models as well as other quality brands of 12-volt AGM flooded lead acid and lithium batteries. Engineered with built-in temperature controls and a battery status indicator, ODYSSEY® battery chargers offer high quality performance and speed whether you need a charger for your car, powersports vehicle or busy professional autobody workshop.
Also on display in the 2023 AAPEX and SEMA ODYSSEY® battery exhibits will be the first-ever TPPL AGM power solution for automotive auxiliary applications – the ODYSSEY® ODS-AGM14 battery. Engineered with a vent port that’s designed to seamlessly fit factory specifications for the vehicle’s existing vent system, ODYSSEY® ODS-AGM14 batteries provide long-lasting power for automotive auxiliary applications that are compatible with several popular vehicle manufacturers including BMW®, Mercedes-Benz® and Dodge®/Chrysler/Jeep. As a result of the battery’s TPPL design, these cars can run anything from lighting and navigation to the latest state-of-the-art stereo systems without running the vehicle’s motor.
ODYSSEY® batteries provide ample deep cycling reserve power, with engine cranking pulses up to 3,125 amps for five seconds, which is double that of equally sized conventional lead acid batteries. The battery’s AGM construction helps pack the plates tightly in absorbent fiberglass separators that hold the electrolyte and makes the battery maintenance-free. Backed by an industry-leading warranty, ODYSSEY® batteries feature a two-year storage life at 77°F (25°C) and are available in a wide variety of sizes with Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) as high as 2,250.
