This battery is great. Fits in a tight area. Does not have to stand upright.

The battery came with no hardware to attach the cables. When I was running a shop and working on GA aircraft for 51 years I sold hundreds of batteries. Never knew them to come without hardware. Never sold one of these though. It is 6 mm by the way.

I have used these batteries for 20 years. I replaced them in about fours years is I was going to remote areas. I would use the ones I pulled out for various jobs in the Hanger. They would last another 10 years in the hanger, What really surprised me is they would hold a charge all winter.

Just replaced this battery in my Christavia MK-1. Originally installed in April 2004 when plane was completed. 0-200 cranks fast, easy starts. I hope this one also last 19 years. Great battery!

Great battery. I calculated, that with the given charging cycles, this battery should last 3-4 years at the rate I fly. The battery (same make and model) lasted 9 years before dying. To me, that is a very good value.

I replaced my weakening 4-year-old Odessey PC680 with this SBSJ16 battery. The battery is installed in my Vans RV-9A. It is the identical size and shape of the PC680. Both batteries are made by the Enersys company. The SBSJ16 battery has 220 CCA vs 170 on the PC680 and it makes a big difference cranking over on cold winter mornings.

These batteries only lasts about 5 years, but they have plenty of juice right up until they basically fail outright. Very little warning.

Great product! Replaced my Gill battery I have been replacing every couple of years for last 25 years. Smaller, lighter and cranked over my o320 better than my Gill batteries when they were new.

The best battery hands-down last forever

I’m pleased with the service and pleased with this product.

Immediate delivery of correct product.

great battery. competitive price in Alaska.

This is by far the best battery we have installed in any aircraft. We have replaced many Concorde and Gill batteries with this little gem through field approvals. Our first installation of this battery was in 2008 and it is performing like new yet and that install has no charging system.

Works good in the battery box, under the front seat in my Cub.

Fit like a glove, in the under seat battery box in my Cub. Now, the B&C starter gets the O-200 motor going, even on cold mornings.

I have had this in my aircraft for over a year. I am amazed at the cranking power. Plus, I do not have to worry about it freezing in extreme cold here in NE MN. If that were not enough, I gained 12 pounds of useful load!

Accidentally left the master on for a few hours ran the battery done to 11.9 volts. It still had enough to start the O-360 the next morning without a jump... Id say pretty good battery considering its size and weight.

These batteries are truly incredible. they greatly resist sulfating compared to a normal battery. I am repeatedly amazed at the cranking ability and how well they hold a charge and last.

Best batteries I ever had! Would never buy anything else. One in my Glasair since 2003!! Airplane sometimes sat for over 6 month, without recharging battery, but it cranked the 0-360 over effortlessly. The other one in my Slepcev Stork, since 2007. Never any problems, never had to recharge. Have a bigger one in my VW van since two years. Truely great product. Well worth the little extra money. Thank you Odyssey.

Slowly converting our fleet to these batteries as other wear down. Like the weight savings & they provide exceptional service to our aircraft.

Year and a half problem free. Sudden dead cell and no start condition. Switching back to Odyssey

Powersafe Battery SBSJ16. I have purchased three of these batteries. The first was installed when I changed my C-180 fuselage battery to the firewall battery location three years ago. During a cross-country trip out west this Sept 2021, the plane failed to start on Orcas Island, WA. The battery was found to be swollen and melted. The plane was prop started. A new battery was ordered, and installed in California. After one day flying to Wyoming, the new battery was also swollen and melted. It showed low voltage in flight. It would not charge by generator. It would charge by wall charger and hold enough charge to start the plane twice each day, as long as no electric systems were used in flight. I got back to Pennsylvania that way. During the repair, the generator was found to be destroyed. The third new battery was installed and a new alternator was installed replacing the generator. On the one hour flight from the IA/A&P to home, all seemed in order. However, on the same day, after a 2.5 hr flight to Ohio, this third battery is now also swollen with signs of plastic melt. It still charges without problem and voltage in flight remains 14.2 V. We dont know what the problem is. I only fly VFR day light, but having three swollen, melted batteries in one and a half months gives one pause.

Battery arrived almost dead , No way to tell how old it is After charging seems ok Hope it holds up

This is my second Powersafe battery. If I hadnt converted my battery compartment to fit this battery, I wouldnt purchase another. The battery failed after less than a year old. I did not purchase the first one from Aircraft Spruce. Hopefully, this one will last a bit longer.
