One question. Does the odyssey need to have a temperature sensitive voltage regulator like the gel cells or can it charge on buss voltage? Thanks, Dave Leonard That's a standard battery in RVs these days. I'm squeezing one on onto the firewall of my RV-4. This makes for a forward baggage compartment in the tunnel where the battery was. Van's has a nice pre-made battery box kit for the PC625 to mount it on the firewall if you've got an extra $50.
