It's basically how many amps the battery can put out for 30 seconds and still remain at 10.5 volts. (Or something about like that.) Regardless, you want a high CA. And 700 seems pretty low for Group-27's and 31's.

I'm running Group-24 Interstates and they have 1000MCA. And 800 CCA. So you might want to check out different brands, models. And for LYINLOW, living in Canada, you may want to also take a peek at starting batteries. Probably a lot better for your situation.

Oops, I'm sorry. I keep thinking that everyone drive their cars year 'round like I do. So it doesn't matter then.
