I use an ATV battery that weighs 15lbs on my street/track car, and so far its been fantastic.

Obviously - these only run when the car is running (like sitting on grid at Sebring in the summer with the AC on).

My 996 is primarily track use - meaning, I take it out on the street rarely, but it happens.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I got a gift cert for an Optima battery (Not Braille, not Deka, not any other brand) lol. My 996 is primarily track use - meaning, I take it out on the street rarely, but it happens. My question is this - can the lightweight Optima still power the car for 'normal' use? Meaning, can it run the stereo, lights, or AC? Obviously - these only run when the car is running (like sitting on grid at Sebring in the summer with the AC on). Will it work, or a recipe for disaster? I'd love to shave some weight where I can. It's a Florida car with really only one time a year that it runs in the cold - Roebling Road in February (20's at night).

POST 2Original post

The alternator provides 100% of the power during engine operations.....I guess there could be a condition when it doesn't if EVERY electrical load was turned on at the same time.....but I can't believe that this would be an issue to have the lightweight battery.

POST 3Original post

Rennline recommends a larger lightweight battery if the car sees street use. Still lighter than the stock battery but not as light as the typical lightweight battery used in track only cars. Info is on their website.

POST 4Original post

I use an ATV battery that weighs 15lbs on my street/track car, and so far its been fantastic. Needs to go on a charger if you leave it for more than a few days, but otherwise no issues.
