Just like any other PWCs, Sea-Doos use 12V batteries as well which typically provide amps depending on the model. Unlike regular flooded acid models, the sealed AGM batteries are spill-proof, maintenance-free, and more durable.

Posted 02 August - PM I did the search and could only find one thread about this. Said a group 24 battery should fit in fine where the two 16 batteries normally sit. Cut the center dividers from the original battery trays and the 24 should fit in fine. Can even use the original rubber straps to hold it down.
Hook up the two original red wires to the new single positive. It seems several years ago I remember a thread about having to remove the oil tank to get the battery in. I'm tired of having those little expensive jet ski batteries wear out every few years and costing way more than they should. I bought a sealed 24 marine starter battery and am going to the lake tomorrow night to try to install it. Thanks for any advice. Need a shop or part manual for your boat or PWC?
I'm on my way to the lake to do it now. Posted 04 August - AM Good deal, let us know how it turns out. Posted 04 August - PM Got done. It worked pretty well. I got my oil tank out fairly easy. Did manage to spill a bunch of oil tho, used a bunch of rags to sop that up. I just took off the three nuts holding the tank to the wall. Then I loosened the clamp on the top of the filler neck tube under the filler opening.
That clamp was a bear to get back on tho. I also unplugged the electrical connection that is attached to something on the right side top of the tank. I think that might be the level switch or something. Then I managed to manuever the tank out and over toward the right side of the boat without removing the two tubes from the bottom of the tank.
I broke out the two walls of the original battery trays where they crossed near each other. This made it one big tray. I took the rubber bottom things that the original batteries sat in and cut one side off one of them.
