Odyssey PC1200T AGM Battery – Polaris General & Xpedition
Odyssey PC1200T / ODS-AGM42LA – Group 26 AGM Battery for Polaris General & Xpedition
The Odyssey Extreme PC1200T (ODS-AGM42LA) is a compact Group 26 AGM battery that delivers serious cranking power and deep-cycle reserve for newer Polaris side-by-sides that use an automotive-style battery, including many Polaris General and Polaris Xpedition models.
Built with pure virgin lead plates and advanced AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) technology, this battery is designed to handle heavy accessory loads, frequent starts, and rough off-road use while still offering long service life.
This makes it an excellent Polaris side-by-side (UTV) battery upgrade for riders who run light bars, stereos, winches and other accessories and want both strong starting and dependable reserve power.
Perfect Upgrade for Accessory-Loaded Polaris SxS Machines
Modern side-by-sides are packed with power-hungry add-ons – light bars, sound systems, GPS, heaters, winches and more. The Odyssey PC1200T is engineered to keep up by combining high cranking amps with deep-cycle capability.
- Group 26 footprint – sized to fit many Polaris General & Xpedition battery trays that accept an automotive battery.
- SAE automotive brass posts with 3/8" threaded receptacles for ring-terminal accessory leads.
- AGM construction – spill-proof, vibration resistant and maintenance-free.
Always confirm dimensions and terminal layout against your original battery before ordering.
Key Benefits
- Massive starting power: up to 1200 PHCA for confident cold starts and winch pulls.
- Strong cold weather performance: 540 CCA helps crank reliably in sub-zero conditions.
- Deep-cycle capability: rated for up to 400 cycles at 80% depth of discharge when properly maintained.
- High reserve capacity: 78 minutes of reserve power to feed lights, pumps, stereos and more.
- Low internal resistance: quick recharge and strong voltage under load.
- Maintenance-free: sealed AGM design – no water to add, no acid spills.
Ideal Use Cases
- Polaris General & Xpedition UTV / side-by-side models that use a Group 26 automotive battery.
- Side-by-sides with light bars, stereos, GPS, heaters and winches.
- Cold-weather riding where strong CCA and PHCA are critical.
- Riders who want an Odyssey Extreme upgrade for both starting and deep-cycle performance.

If you are unsure about fitment, contact BRS Battery with your year, make and model before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this fit my Polaris General or Xpedition?
This Odyssey PC1200T / ODS-AGM42LA is a Group 26 AGM battery with SAE posts. Many Polaris General and Xpedition models that accept a Group 26 automotive-style battery will fit it, but you should always confirm tray dimensions, hold-down style and terminal orientation against your original battery before ordering.
Is this a direct replacement for Odyssey PC1200T / ODS-AGM42LA?
Yes. This listing is for the Odyssey Extreme PC1200T / ODS-AGM42LA battery. If your vehicle or UTV calls for this part number, or an equivalent Group 26 AGM with SAE posts, this is an appropriate replacement.
Can I use this battery to run accessories in my side-by-side?
The PC1200T is designed for starting and deep cycling. It offers up to 78 minutes of reserve capacity, so it works well in Polaris side-by-sides with light bars, stereos, GPS, heaters, winches and other accessories when it is properly charged and not repeatedly drained below safe levels.
What type of charger should I use with this AGM battery?
Use a smart charger that is AGM-compatible and can supply at least the recommended 4A charging current. Avoid old-style manual chargers that do not regulate voltage, and keep the battery on maintenance/float charge when your Polaris side-by-side is parked for long periods.
Is this battery maintenance-free and spill-proof?
Yes. The PC1200T uses sealed AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) technology. It is maintenance-free (no water to add), spill-proof under normal operating conditions and highly resistant to vibration – ideal for off-road UTV use.
