AI James Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I don't think they are the same as kinetiks... considering last I heard kinetik hasn't even shipped out any batteries in like three months and I can get shuriken's next day pretty much... both are hawker/enersys battery's kinetik is oemed company by the parent company just like shuriken the shurikens are decent batteries from what ive seen, id run them myself and may unless kinetik starts shipping again soon.

raytard Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 i have a few no complaints, and they seem to be basically identical to kinetiks, in the way stingers are to odessey but the ratings are definately inflated from kinetiks for each size, i'd assume they do about the same though. and yes they are definately under the metra tree, and personally thats a company i trust Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritosaregood Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 would xs power be a better option than these? seller feedback: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=61719 http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...showtopic=68281 build log: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/index.php?showtopic=44800 Gf's build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/54346-kickergirls-camaro-new-box-pg-5/#entry753970 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundzright Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 They dont seem to be very far off the most i found was like 4 pounds 10 lbs is the biggest difference and if you are trying to say a pound here and there isn't a difference then how would they be the same? A plastic battery case doesn't even weigh pounds. The Shurikens have a lot of batteries with a 6mm terminal tells me that it wasnt realy designed for anything high current.

raytard Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 they all end up being similar and running 3 even margionally weaker batts instead of two more expensive better ones is going to be better option regardless Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
