Default Flat Mounting Odessey PC-680

For any of you who have mounted a PC-680 on it's side I was wondering if there were any limitations, etc. you have discovered. All the product information seems to show it will work fine that way...

Thanks.

It's mounted that way in F1 Rocket ships, I have one mounted that way on mine, it's been in that position for > 2 years with no problems.

I believe Odyssey says any position except upside down is fine.

No experience with Odyssey, but have mounted several other sealed batteries on side with no problems.

We have two in our Supercubs for 3 and a half years now. No problem to my knowledge.

You can mount it upside down if you want. There are no limitations.
