I bought an Odyssey PC-1500DT for my TJ 2 1/2 mos. before I traded it in on my JK, I made them swap it out, they were happy enough getting a new battery w/ the trade in.

Running stock battery and I won't replace it till it goes bad. I don't have a lot of heavy electrical stuff, besides the winch, which I don't plan on using.....
