Where to Buy CSL/Mini Battery?

[Exclusivs]

It's doing fine. Haven't had an issue so yeah I would buy again. Although I've only had it for about half a year so I can't really comment too much on it's longevity.

Cool! Do you need to keep on a trickle?

Never a starting issue etc?

Looking into this 1 - current battery is Heavy. 59lbs

Went with pep boys, no issues. Keep it on a trickle if you don't drive it alot like any other battery.

Only drive my car about once a week now because of covid and don't keep it on a trickle because I'm lazy. Have never had a starting issue.

A little late to the party, but figured I'd update this thread in case any other battery-info seekers come across it. I just picked up on Saturday the Champion H5 battery at my local Pep Boys. Ignore what the website says ($161.49)...I paid $107.36 for it, out the door! Seems like a great deal on what appears to be a great option for our cars! Hope that helps.

I walked in and bought a battery. Didn’t do anything special, that was the price. 🤷🏻♂️

I've been looking to buy the CSL/Mini battery, but have not found anywhere to buy it from. Realoem says the part number is 61218377139, but the usual online distributors (FCP, ECS, etc) don't have it in stock and the dealers I've called can't seem to get it for me either. Anyone know where I can find one?

What about this battery from Schmiedann?

I'm considering ordering this for my M3...

Ya that's the CSL/mini battery everyone's talking about.

You can find another H5 for a little cheaper and don't have to wait for shipping from Europe.

I picked up a Interstate H5 for $107 its 32 pounds. I figured it could be added to the list

[Tbonem3]

Great price and even a little lighter than the actual csl/mini (35lbs).

Did you buy it directly from interstate? I’m seeing $154

[lvm3sm46]

Yes that is their cost, I'm not sure what their dealers charge. My apologies as I forgot I bought direct from the distributor I know.

Bump on this thread - been reading through and want to thank you all for the value provided! Going to replace mine soon and starting to look around. I checked out Pepboys from the link posted about the Champion H5 - seems like it's $200 now?

How's everyone liking this battery? and any new suggestions in 2023?
