Odyssey PC680 in combination with Redax Ignition/Charging system

[Beucars]

Hi,

Not wanting to start a general Battery thread, but my newly acquired 1974 C3 is equipped with Redaxs Ignition/Charging system and I want to make sure that I can safely replace my old Battery with an Odyssey PC680.

Or what is your advice in combination with Redax system?

Thank you for your valuable feedback!

Hi Jeroen
Yes, you can. It will be a good combination because the Redax upgraded alternator has enough output to fully recharge an Odyssey battery.

Yes, and if you plug your Odyssey into an Optimate trickle charger (or suitable charger) every time you park the bike in the garage the battery will last for years. My PC 680 is 13 years old, another plus is they can be mounted in any position if needed (flat, upside down) HTH

Great, thank you Gentlemen!

Yes, I have very good experience with these batteries myself in my other triples but wasn't sure if suitable with the Redax system.

Thank you!
