Canadian Tire Car Battery Motomaster OE vs OEPLUS
Hello, I'm going to buy a new car battery from Canadian Tire. The options for the Motomaster brand are OE and OE PLUS. The OE PLUS costs a little bit more, which I don't mind paying, But according to the specs:
OE:
Cold Cranking Amps (@ -18°C): 850
Cranking Amps (@ 0°C): 1045
OE PLUS:
Cold Cranking Amps (@ -18°C): 750
Cranking Amps (@ 0°C): 925
Why does the more expensive OE PLUS battery have less cranking amps?
The description for OE PLUS seems to tout some extra quality features over the OE, plus a 4 year vs 3 year warranty, but a guy told me the cranking amps is the more important thing to consider.
So I'm not sure if I should be considering cranking amps over all else.
I thought maybe between the two it's not a big deal but 750 vs 850 seems to be a big difference and was surprised to see the more expensive battery have the lower number.
Which one should I go for - cheaper with higher cranking amps or more expensive with lower cranking amps? Do the extra features of the OE PLUS outweigh the lower cranking amp value?
Thanks.
