So I waited and waited for the second two batteries from Autoplicity. After a week I called them to get a tracking number because, again, they didn't provide one. They informed me that they cancelled the order the day after I ordered due to lack of availability. I called West Coast Batteries...
First 2 arrived from CA in one day. I was worried about Autoplicity, but they came through so I'm going to order the other 2 I need.

Wow! I had no idea! They came wired from the factory like this. I'm not sure what the story is. Maybe they were installed by Marine Max incorrectly. I hope there is adequate slack in the cable so that I can wire them correctly.
I pulled the plug on 2 of the Odysseus from Autoplicity...
Thanks Blue! I'm seeing the same thing! The bow thrusters are on a different set of batteries, so these will just be used for house and starting. I loved the Odysseys I had, but I always thought Lifelines were the best of the best. Looking at the specs, they don't look great at all in terms...
Thanks. I have found these, the cost savings isn't much and I think I'm going with either Odyssey or Lifeline. The specs between these two are pretty comparable with the exception of Lifeline's low Cold Cranking Amps rating of 600 vs Odyssey's 1150. Then again, how important are CCAs in CA...
Found the Odyssey!

Someone has them for $290, which is $90 more than I originally paid.

Update: Two of the Die Hard Platinums running in parallel are finally toast after 6 years. And they really got worked. I went to find 4 more, only to find out they have been discontinued. I really LOVED these batteries, which I think were private labeled for Sears by Odyssey. Any thoughts...
I'm pretty sure the oil level is okay. I changed it myself a couple months ago. And wouldn't this produce a different error code? I'm wondering if it could be a bad sensor. There are a couple that I can see in the loop. Is it possible to test those by jumping the leads?

Hi All,
Okay, the new plugs solved the rough running problem. Reminder, it's a 7.5 kw Kohler. Now, a new problem. It now runs for 5-10 seconds, and then shuts down with a "LOC" error message. Time after time! BUT, twice now in the past month, I've been able to get it to run for, on one...
Hi Mike,
I need to get around to that before I visit the boat next. Thanks for the tip. Yes, still in Phoenix. Haven't taken the boat to Catalina yet. Still a little shook from the 10' swells I had the boat in right after I bought it. Stability wasn't the best. Pendulum effect up on the...
Hi Mike,
Yes, still have it. Don't see it near enough, but it's there waiting for me. Not too many problems with the E-Plex. Only one right now. The module for the Gen set and underwater lights. I think I'll need to replace it. Any ideas on what the modules cost, and the difficulty of...
Awesome job on the video, Bill! As always...
Yes, the wind was pushing us back a little too quick. I saw that coming and had to duck back into the slip so Bill could make his turn. Another monumental Thanksgiving Day on the water...

At least I wasn't using Collinite! Now that I have a clue, I might try Collinite up above when mine runs out. I'm looking forward to trying the Finesse-It out, and with my new set of brains, hopefully removing the final wax will be smooth and much less painful.
Of all the threads I've read...
No wonder I'm having such a hard time getting the final wax off. I'm an IDIOT! I apply to the whole side, and then start wiping it off. IDIOT!!! I figured "dry" was "dry", not "dry for a few minutes" = easy, and "dry for a couple hours" = impossible.
Okay, I'm looking forward to trying out...
