kickass audio Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 this is the difference... i asked nate the same thing and he informed me this... "The s series batteries have a reinforced steel casing whereas the d series just has the plastic casing." So the s series has a little more integrity than a d series. I own an s3400 batt under my hood now and i just ordered my d3100 from nate today. xs power batts are awesome and i believe they are under-rated. I had my s3400 tested when it was new and it tested at 1060 crank amps. I just had that same battery tested about 2 weeks ago and it tested at 1200 crank amps!! Im using that battery to power a 1400 watt rms amp at 4 ohms and it will let me crank the power without the engine on for about 1 hour before i have to turn the engine on to charge it back up. xs power is one hell of a battery to use. Hope this helps clarify the difference for you!

Nathan @ XSpower Posted August 27, 2010 Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 Thanks Guys!! They are correct the S and D versions are the same exact battery, just the hardware that comes with them are different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
