Battery OEM Chevrolet or OPTIMA
Currently running a yellow Optima, 3 years and going strong. I don't recall what the OE battery was but it crapped out after 2 years in mild California weather.
I had an older optima yellow top last about 10 years. I miss when that quality was available
On my 2014 Leaf SV I put in an Optima Yellowtop and it lasted over 7 years.
I have a 10 year old yellow top Optima (not even the nicest thing out there) that starts a 440 (often 9 months between starts) every time. I haven't even put a tender on it in the last 5 years.
Optima yellow top. It's around $300 ish. The last one was replaced after a decade. The new one I have will probably be the last one.
Optima seems to be the only brand of cylindrical Pb batteries for automotive use... pretty much every other automotive Pb battery is prismatic.
That's the first I've seen one fail this way.
Mind you this throttle body is brand new.
Never left me stranded besides a dead battery.
Chevy Bolt. Then it was recalled for the battery fire issue.
Chevy Bolt, almost caught fire they bought it off me
