My 12 volt batteries gave it up yesterday. I've made the decision to switch to 16 Volt.

Which brand battery charger would you recommend ?
Has anyone had experience with XS batteries ??

Yep, Powermaster lightweight 16v in my dragster with no alternator. Powermaster Intellicharger does the job well.

The 16 volt Rock battery is head and shoulders above the rest.
My Big block Mopar engine turns like the X brand cranking.
I had the 16 volt Turbo start battery and charger and the Tubro start charger stills charges the 16 volt Rock battery. The Rock makes the Turbo seem like a 6 volt battery. The 16 volt Turbo start battery(I know it was a better battery)did not seem to turn my engine any faster than the 8 year old Die Hard Marine battery.
I do not sell Rock or any other batteries,just trying to help out my fellow Mopar racers

I run 2 8 vdc golf cart batts in series < need the weight aft> only charge in the shop no alt, the starter probably makes more torque than the engine
