As a new Pioneer 1000-5 owner I have been doing a lot of research on the dual battery setup. Having already added a winch and plow with optional electric/hydraulic turn and numerous lights and other electrical gadgets in my future I am 100% positive I will add a second battery.
After reading several older posts on the topic, I am looking for feedback on how the battery chosen is holding up for those of you who added an additional battery. I am torn between spending $165 on the Odyssey battery or going with a cheaper option like the one below. Let me know what you chose for your setup and how it's holding up. Thanks!

Look at this on eBay Mighty Max ML26-12 12V 26AH Replacement for Vision CP12240D 12 Volt 26 Ah | eBay

The Mighty Max doesn't even tell the CCA read the part in my topic on CCA needed for winch.
ML26-12 ML26-12 12V 26AH Replacement Battery for Powersonic PS-12260NB

The cheaper battery I showed is out of stock but you can buy it hear.
Universal 45976 12v 35AH Sealed Lead Acid AGM Battery Apex Battery

And for the $15 more $ you can get a extra year warranty and a way better battery than the Odyssey as I show in my topic.

Now the XS is CHEAPER than the Odyssey

Hey Dude... I am in the process of setting up my 1000 3 pax. I ordered a VMax V30-800. I am installing a honda winch kit, horn kit, back up kit and an aftermarket radio and underseat cooling fan. I plan on wiring the winch, fan and radio to the new battery. I also got the dual battery separator system. To answer you question, I do not have any operational history, but I threw it out there as it is a deep cycle battery with great capacity choice.
