Optima battery boxes
 
Who has the cheapest box for an Optima battery. Im going to put one in my Seadoo speedster, and don't care what it looks like I just want functional.

There is only one answer here. They aint cheap. I shoped real hard and still I have $488 buck in batteries and boxes. Just hit a search on battery boxes this thread

teague and eddie marine have them, powder coated or anodized, about $100., they are very nice. blue tops should run you $139

:eureka: thats a great idea Scott:crazy:

but honestly its probably the only way that I will be able to fit Optimas in my bilge:(

Scott 05-15-2003 11:01 AM

Thrill,
The Optima boxes are or should be smaller than what you have now.:)

Madcow 05-15-2003 05:03 PM

The optima is about 1 1/2 shorter than a regular battery. Thats why a regular cheap battery hold down wont work.

You should look into the new Optima Blue Tops that are group 31 size. They fit in typical race tiedowns and have far more reserve power. In Tampa I can get anyone a deal on batteries gut they are now worth shipping due to weight.

here is the dual mount. I think it was $130. A company in NY called Halbig Machining makes them.
