    HPDI battery

    I need a new battery for my 250 HPDI and heard that a amg or gel battery was not recommended. Which battery are most people using?
    I don't know where we are, but we are making darn good time.

    I'm running an Interstate 27 XHD. It's got the most cranking amps I could find for under $120.00. This is my second one. The first lasted 30 months & when it quit it quit. One day it dragged first thing that morning. The next day it wouldn't turnover.

    I just put one of these in my boat a couple weeks ago. The 24 series, just didn't have enough for me.
