Shibby Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 I dont understand why a lawsuit would make you decide which battery to buy. Sorry though cant tell you which one to buy. I myself would go for the cheaper one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batcap 2000's FTW I'd still hit but the other was better I've only dealt with Kinetik and Optima so my vote goes for kinetik. I guess it really comes down to price if they have similar ratings Quote 1998 Toyota Camry XLE V6Goldwood GW-S650/4 6.5sEA 200a alt2009 Lancer GTSStock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I myself would go for the cheaper one if you heard that Honda lied about its gas mileage #'s and they dont get as good of gas mileage as they say... wouldnt that make you question ur purchase.. its not going to stop me.... just want to get the best battery out of the two pm 1200 - max 1200a - 44 ah - $150 or khc1400 - max 1500a - 60 ah - $210 so will the powermaster be enough? or should i spend a little more to have more room to expand (not likely tho, got a new baby! ) Edited April 19, 2008 by decafcappucino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sully Posted April 19, 2008 Report Share Posted April 19, 2008 First off the lawsuit is only for advertised capability of the 16v batteries. I personally love my Kinetiks and would never even think about changing them. Powermaster makes a great product, i have installed several of their alternators so there is no brand bias here. The fact remains that kinetiks are used in some of the loudest vehicles on the planet, at that level of competition if there was a good reason to shy away from them those competitors would not be using them. Both powermaster and kinetik are hands down better than most other brands like optima, you will be very happy with either one but my vote goes to the HC1400 (or 1800!)
