It might eventually hurt the starting motor as the motor will stall longer and get hotter before getting to the proper starting RPM. Less than optimal current can mean the resistive component of the motor impedance remains high, dissipating power instead of the inductive motor component magnetic field transferring starting power to the gear load.Most full size batteries are about 600-800 cca. BUt they dont use all that on start up. Smaller batteries might be about 350cca.
If you start a pick up truck with a smaller battery will it hurt a smaller battery??as long as it recharges when running..
Do a search for the model of car/truck engine and the type of battery recommended.how many real cca do you think a V6 uses(4 litre)..?
Most of his post have lead up to this, he has a failing battery and has spent money on supper caps, audio caps ,a "battery tender" now this. If he charged himself minimum wage for all the time online about this he could have bought the correct replacement battery. I'm all for saving money and finding a better way of doing things, but this is just ridiculous.If you want to use a lower CCA battery and save a few bucks, not really, then go ahead and use a smaller battery or an older battery that is not quite rated for your truck. When the contacts in the solenoid weld together and panic sets in trying to undo the cables, you will know the reasoning behind it. Good luck.
Stop. You're confused. CCA = Cold Cranking Amps. This is the amount of current that battery in cold (ie. winter) conditions will output max for a short period of time on instant demand. How much current is actually used is a function of your starter motor. How much it draws to throw the bendix and turn the engine over.Most full size batteries are about 600-800 cca. BUt they dont use all that on start up. Smaller batteries might be about 350cca.

don't try to talk sense to himStop. You're confused. CCA = Cold Cranking Amps.
They keep me around, to be the"idiot whisperer".shortbus...they should kick you off the forum for being anti forum. My other posts have nothing to do with this post. Nothing. I thought AAC had higher standards..
You would need a bigger supercap than will fit in the back seat!Not if you use supper caps too.
You haven't tried to explain it to him.You would need a bigger supercap than will fit in the back seat!
If the battery will start the truck then go with it. The downside is too small of a battery will not last as long as a proper sized battery.Most full size batteries are about 600-800 cca. BUt they dont use all that on start up. Smaller batteries might be about 350cca.

My tummy is a pretty good "supper capacitor" I'd even say a super supper capacitor.I’ve never seen a supper capacitor.
