had one in a car that rolled 4 times and it’s still working
Pros: still working after crash
Get a OPTIMA Yellowtop D35 Like I Did, I've Never Had Any Startup Issues Eversince, I Actually Regret Not Buying One Before I Spent $120 For a Battery Tender Jump Box From Amazon.com
Pros: No startup issues
Cons: Regret buying jump box
Part number: D35
Had a yellow optima that went 10 years and it started to slow a bit. Replaced the yellow with a red 6 years ago and it’s still fine.
Pros: long lifespan, good longevity
Cons: slowed down
I use oem bc I get discounted price else I’d use optima, bc I personally on my cars with optimas have never had a problem and oldest is coming up on 9 years
Pros: no problems, long lasting
I went to the store and traded the core of my perfectly "good" DieHard Gold (~18 mos old) and spent $400 on an Optima Yellow Top. The difference was immediate. Interior lights were brighter, mirrors functioned normally, no 'system off' garbage, truck opened and closed without hesitation. It starts strong and fast. With the temperature dropping, the peace of mind has been 100% worth the price. I even put the portable jump starter back in the garage. It worked.
Pros: brighter interior lights, normal mirror function, strong fast starts, no system off warnings, peace
The optimas (red top) I got in 2019 are still going. They are not the best though just better than liquid.
Pros: good longevity
Cons: not best performance
Optimas are not the brand they once were, I would never put one in my vette after the brand new $300 red top I put in my Durango basically exploded a week after I put it in.
Cons: exploded quickly, poor reliability
Vehicle:
Dodge Durango
Optimas don’t seem to hold up any better than the AGM from the parts store.
Cons: no better than generic AGM
Vehicle:
Subaru
Optoma are shit nowadays anyway.
Cons: poor quality
Vehicle:
Subaru
