Optima Red Top has been treating me well.
I like AGM batteries. Using optimas now, whenever these finally die I'll try another brand. 4 years in now and I can't notice any loss of capacity yet. They work amazing when it is like 0 degrees F, too.
If you do need one, optima is pretty good but expensive.????
I have a VR6 swap that Sal at S&P did for me and we used an Optima Red Top.
I've had an Optima battery for several years. Still cranks my G20 van as if were brand new.????
I run optimas because of the extreme temps here. Can be -40 outside and over 120 in the summers. They've been great for my old 454 powered truck.
The yellow top is what I have in my car and there is one issue I have with it, the amp hour rating. The yellow top is only 38a/h where the OEM is about 45a/h. This will lead to the inverter using a lot of energy charging the 12v battery and decrease fuel efficiency.
Not FUCKING BATTERIES PLUS Duracell, for not honoring my 2 year warranty for “lack of maintenance”. Because its at 0%….
my 2009 had an optima and it only lasted 2 years
I have only had poor luck with optimas
