Increased Power
from Power House
These premium Power House maintenance-free
AGM and VRLA batteries for 12V models from
Hazelwood, Missouri based Mid-USA Motorcycle
Parts have been designed to eliminate the need to
ever add water to the battery.
The sealed enclosure allows mounting the battery in
any position (except upside-down) and to help
improve vibration resistance, the battery acid is
absorbed between the plates with fine microfiber
glass mats (AGM) and the internal gas pressure is
valve-regulated (VRLA) to prevent any water loss.
The AGM and VRLA construction, combined with
lead calcium grid plates, is said to "provide more cold
cranking amps than lead acid type batteries, with up
to three times the life span."
They include a sulfation retardant that dramatically
reduces the battery-killing plate sulfation that is
commonly associated with conventional batteries.
They have an extremely slow rate of self-discharge
when not in use, and must be slow charged at least
every three months if not in service. Cable mounting
hardware is included. They are available for a wide
range of Touring, Softail, Dyna, V-Rod and Sportster
applications from 1973 and up.
Also made in the USA by Yuasa, these lead acid
batteries are the same batteries that are made for
Harley-Davidson. The Power House standard line
features patented separators that allow two extra
plates per cell for +30% more power and between
5% and 8% more cold cranking power than the
standard hi-torque low maintenance output series.
There is less maintenance required because of
advanced lead calcium technology instead of
conventional lead antimony.
This means a massive -90% reduction in water loss
due to gassing. By incorporating the latest in battery
technology, each Power House hi-torque battery
"delivers the ultimate in value". All batteries are

shipped dry, without acid, and include instructions
on how to fill the battery. Terminal hardware and a
vent tube also included.
If you are increasing the power available to start a
bike, then Mid-USA says that dealers could do worse
than installing a Power House ignition module -
available as stand-alone units or complete install kits
for selected single cam Big Twins from 1970 to 1999
(except EFi) and Sportsters 1971-2003 (plus 1996-
2003 1200S), except those equipped with a lean
angle switch.
Fully adjustable and for use with kick or electric start,
they can be used as dual or single fire with choice of
single or multi-spark mode and have 10 different
advance curves.
