I've run Optima red tops for years and never had a problem.
Ended up finding a red top in the back of the store at Advanced (34R with 800CCA). If you go with Optima know that it takes some modification with the wiring. I needed to remove a cable tie and relocate one of the positive leads. Outback started right up and is running great.
I had a Yellow top optima installed for my subaru around 2015, it lasted until just today - held out well
On my A9+ I turned my display down to 60hz had it since February battery life is excellent.
Maybe last year I got a letter from Subaru Canada saying the battery was being recalled and I could get a replacement.
…After I had already replaced it with an Optima Yellow Top.
Happened to me too, the first day of usage. Weirdly, when i restarted, it dropped from 100 to 92. Then another time from 80 something to 60 something. It was probably some battery reading issue, cuz the overall runtime of 10hrs of screentime was not affected.
I run the red top. I haven't noticed any issues except it doesn't fit the stock tray.
I just bought a Tab A8 to replace my 6 year old Tab A6 and I am sad that the battery life is worse than the A6.
I used the tablet at night in bed for about 90 minutes to read news and I get 5 or 6 days use before needing a charge. The A8 lasts 2 days.
Optimas don’t seem to hold up any better than the AGM from the parts store.
Optoma are shit nowadays anyway.
