I've been running a red top Optima for about four years now and no complaints.
I know some people love to shit on Optima but my yellow top is still kickin at 10 years old. Been run to the ground a couple of times over the years and the slow charger brings it right back.
I run yellowtops in my car and truck and the truck is going on 5 years now and still kicking.
I have have good luck bringing sulfated Optimas to my local Interstate Battery. They’ve brought several back from the dead for me and they went on to last a very long time.
I got a red top optima, put the subaru battery blanket on it. Good down to -10f.
Optima Red Top has been treating me well.
I always liked Optimas, but I bought mine 2-4 years ago. I heard the quality has gone down but haven’t checked myself.
Honda batteries suck in general, bought a brand new one from the dealer and it was dead and wouldn't take a charge lol. I was willing to pay the extra cash for oem because I thought it would be better. Nope,
I have definitely experienced said quality issues on multiple Optima batteries. They all lasted about a year for me.
Haven't been impressed with the quality of optima over the last 5ish years.
