has anyone ever heard or used a Concorde battery ? i recently purchased a Rock Racing battery (apparently manufactured by Concorde battery) im wondering if there is a cross referance or something ? maybe cheaper to buy from the source rather than a "re-badger" (if that is a word ) perhaps Concorde manufactures these to Rocks specifications ?? there are like a million and 1 Concorde batterys, i found a few with similar dimensions but very low CCA compared with a "ROCK" battery

here is a picture of a Concorde battery


here is the Rock Racing battery


Here is another version i recently noticed (this is a very old picture, i found while snooping around the other day ) this version is red as well, and it is also using the same mount that i have ... Does anyone know the manufacture of this battery ?? This is JJ Olsen's hotrod civic from ? maybe 04 or so ?

after searching (on google) it seems as though they've gone with a new model, much resembling an odyssey



i also found a billet mount on ebay for it, 70 bucks...

an Odyssey for comparison sake

 

looking at the company that makes the batteries, concorde, it looks like they can make anything u could spec out to them, and thats what it looks like the rock battery is, so i wouldnt call it a rebadge at all.

 

thats what i noticed after looking around on their site, they apparently make a bunch of differant batteries for "differant companies"
