DieHard Battery vs. 6 Cars

DieHard Battery vs. 6 Cars tests DieHard batteries under extreme demands. DieHard starts six cars with a single DieHard Platinum battery frozen in a block of ice, because doing it any other way would be boring.

I agree with you, however, the alternator of a car does not charge a battery at the engine's idle, AND even if it did, the split second difference would not be enough to recharge the battery before it had to start the next one.

Agreed, though, make that bitch start 6 diesel engines and I'll buy one right now.

Try starting a 2 diesels with one battery. I'm talking about American Truck diesels, not the <2.0L euro car deisels.

Go back to school, nub.

They're connected in parallel not series, so each car will get 12.6, BUT, the cars didn't start at the same time, so really the frozen battery only started the first couple of cars and the alternators on the running cars would have started the others. I bet if the alternators were disconnected that battery would struggle.

Alternator?

haha if you believe this your a dumbass your telling me one battery that is frozen can power up 6 cars a good battery is what 12.6v and 14.2v when its running nope that horse shit the electrons on the battery will be slower to react with one another when you turn on the car it would have to split power into 6 so thats like 2.1v each, anything less 10 volts wont even let a car turn over. So please Die Hard stop advertising fake bullshit

Probably. It's CCA (at 0F) is over 1,100A. They staggered the starts. It has 205 minutes RC @ 25A (which means, if you put a 25 amp load on it, it will power it for 205 minutes (3 hours 25 minutes) before dropping below 10.2V). I have no doubt it would be able to start 6 cummins (5.9 or 6.7) with grid heaters running without an issue. I'm talking about the PM-1 btw
