Battery OEM Nissan or Deka

I'm running a Deka ETX 14 and us a battery tender jr. works great

I had the ETX14 in my N/A R32 for over 2 years and only time it really drains down is short starts and stops from the afterrun coolant pumps running for 5 minutes.

I have the DEKA ETX20L it started my car in 15 degree weather... I leave the car off for 3 days out of the week and it starts right up... I've been using it daily for quite a while... it has died on me a few times but it was my fault for leaving the fan on.. I just recharged it and it has been fine.

just had a etx14 sat in car for over a month and started right up.

Prep the car... Prep the space... The new beatzzz Deka Batteries... Clean as can be! Hot damn clean wiring!

forget optima. Go with a Deka.

Deka. cranks every time

Actually the Deka's usually test out at almost double their rated CCA, but the big thing is the capacity. with such a small battery, yeah it may crank out enough CCA to turn you over in the winter, but it will only do it for a much shorter time than a conventional battery.

Saturday morning, we pull up to the house outside of Palmdale to this scene - a beat ass Chevy Celebrity trying to jump start an even more thrashed Nissan Stanza. The battery was fully charged, but it wouldn't start because it was still in 'drive.' After almost burning the thing down with improperly attached jumper cables, we were ready for a test drive. It ran... kinda. It was firing on 3...sometimes 4 cylinders, and the oil was overfilled by about 2 quarts.

Switched to a stock mk5 4cyl battery though as the Deka couldn't handle sitting for more than a couple days without being on a trickle charger.
