Author Message   Tq_freak Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2013 - 12:24 pm:        Quick question. CR died at work and the battery is 4 years old. Its been getting there and if it had sat for a week or so I would need to throw it on the charger. I was going to order one last night but the website was saying its the same as a XB. Is that true? I thought they were different. If that's the case I'll pull the one out of my lightning and take it to work so I can get it home. I didn't have the 2 next to each other last night to compare.   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2013 - 12:42 pm:        The only difference between the XB and 1125 battery is the positive and negative terminals are reversed. They are the same shape/size/specs, just the terminals are swapped.   Tq_freak Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2013 - 12:47 pm:        Thanks Froggy I thought there was a difference between the two   Kevmean Posted on Wednesday, May 29, 2013 - 12:59 pm:        Be very very careful if you use a battery with opposite terminals as the rear seat comes very close to the terminal when you hook it onto the subframe ... best to get the correct one and keep the positive lead out of the way.
