Battery Upgrade and Electrical Power Supply Stuff

I just ordered an Odyssey ODX-AGM31M (31M-PC2150ST)

I found a tray that I think will pair nicely also.

$544 Odyssey Battery ODX-AGM31M Extreme Series AGM Battery

battery tray - https://a.co/d/7DIj7HF

This was the most cost efficient option I was able to deduce from my internet research, as of the date of this posting, for this particular battery.

 

$543 for a battery???

 

OP- where do you plan on mounting that tray? It’s a universal tray, so I it wont “bolt in” to any position on the Tacoma. Why not order a tray designed for the tacoma and battery? Also, idk if you’re aware but the stock alternator and ECM flash will not fully recharge an AGM battery, you’ll need a tune to correct it and get a full charge.

 

OE tray. And Amazon would be the last place I'd buy a battery.

 

I have a odyssey extreme. I think it's a 24f.

One thing to note is the difference in charge voltage.you can bump the voltage with vf tune but it's not perfect. The best way is to add a small 20w solar panel with a agm specific charge controller.

 

Since I have to replace my batteries every 2 years in 3 cars I buy the Wmart NeverStart for like $150 each.

I wouldn't spend that kind of money on a battery I have to replace every other year... perhaps if I lived in the mid-west or
up north but not in the desert. I don't care what kind of battery it is, every 2 years period.

 

Agm don't handle heat as well as flooded

 

Interesting I wasn't aware -
