RB1 Odyssey Lux battery recommendation

[6thgear]

Hi folks,

Wondering what RB1 owners may have replaced their oem batteries with? I'm currently leaning towards a Supercharge Gold as it's got 3 years warranty and looks to be well priced.

Unfortunately not too certain on the part number also? There look to be so many variations in the catalogue at Autobarn and Supercheap, even the catalogues look a little different!

Anyone care to advise on their experiences with different batteries and battery model number?

Thanks in advance! :thumbsup:

i just changed mine 2 weeks ago Exide Extra X60D (same size as OEM) with CCA 390 rating from Kmart, want to get better CCA but worry it will not fit.

I'm using supercharge gold, part # MF55B24LS. it's about the same size as OEM. CCA is 450. Forgot the price I paid for it

thanks a lot guys, the supercharge gold sounds good! thanks for the part number, looks just about the same as the factory panasonic batt number...

if they're the same one i asked about the other day, think they're about $155 or so....not bad

thanks guys.

Ended up with the Supercharge Gold, confirming the part number to be MF55B24LS, same as the OEM Panasonic battery. Got it for $150, takeaway no more to pay, from the local Goodyear centre. Pretty awesome price I reckon especially with 36 months warranty. Seems to be the way to go in terms of bang for buck!
