Has anyone used or is using an Odyssey 545 battery to on their Aerovee, if so what is the start experience?

I am using the 545 in my Onex with AeroVee. Starting is fine providing the battery is fully charged. Repeated shutdowns and restarts ( 3-4 ) and things start to slow down cranking wise. I selected this battery because its what Sonex is using in the Onex prototype and the price seemed reasonable.

Thanks 752mr, I have a tri gear and have mocked up Odyssey 680 and 545 and the 545 is the best fit I can get. My starter is on top which takes up battery space.
