Do a search for "PC680"..

People say that if you don't daily drive your car, or start your car every week or so, it'll just die. It won't power a big stereo too if you have that. Although, you could always get a trickle charger, so it won't drain out as easily.

I have the N-Tech PC680 kit and sometimes my car will sit for 2 weeks at a time between starts and I don't have any problems.

Yes, this battery is nice. The mini-battery is great but ditto as others said so far...drive at least once a week so it won't die out.

BTW, anyone know if the ASP (large IC) or the Pettit Racing CoolCharge III WILL FIT with this Rotary Extreme mini-battery?

Relocate the battery. I had two PC 680's die on me. My car was a daily driver, too. Having to worry about my car starting everytime is no fun.

its great. but yeah if u have it sitting a few days at a time, like myself, just keep the neg disconnected.

its great, because of the pretty big weight saving, and allowing you to keep the battery in the engine bay with a large intercooler. i know some tracks requires an external cutoff switch for a battery relo so this works out better for me. plus i have the disc changer in my passenger bin so i just got this from chuck and its been good.

Mine sits for over a week at a time and it starts no problem. I like it but I have had a problem with the postive terminal slipping off.
