Need quick decision on which battery to trade for

[k3n12ock]

I'm trading an amp for either a Deka Intimidator 9A31 or a C&D UPS12-490MR. Which should I trade for? The Deka is fairly new and hasn't been used long and the C&D has been used for a few months. Sorry if this seems like another "this vs that" thread but it's not, really. I just need quick input from people who've had either batteries. Thanks in advance.

i would go for the deka as it might be easier to find a mate in the future.

C&D probably has alot of reserve tho

Hmm okay.

When VS threads like this pop up I always put myself in the OPs shoes and in this case I'd go with the Deka over the C&D batt.

Thanks. I tried very hard to not make it a Vs thread but I guess that's what it came out to be.

There's no other way for it to really out lol... But I'll at least give u some basic reasons for my choice - Those Deka batts seem to have a higher build quality than the C&D from what I've seen.. I know of multiple people who had very bad luck with all the C&D batts that have been on the forums over the past few years.. I've personally seen them discharge very quickly vs other similarly sized batts.
