Battery OPTIMA or YUASA
I use an Optima Yellow Top battery and it made a big difference. The Yellow Top is honestly just good for the car in general.
I’ve got Optima batteries in some of the more “Special” cars.
I've got the Yuasa battery since 6 months and it's working flawlessly ????
I've got about 7 yrs on a yuasa wet battery for 79 flh. I've always had great luck with both harley and yuasa batteries.
Energizer or Yuasa are good quality from my experience. I’ve had an energizer for 5 years now still running and my last yuasa ran great till I drained it to zero doing stupid.
Yellow top is/was a hybrid cranking/deep cycle battery, once popular for putting big stereo systems in cars because it could handle the discharge cycles of running the system without them engine running.
I had a Red Top Optima battery, but it’s so dead that even my NOCO AGM charger won’t recognize or charge it.
Optimas don’t seem to hold up any better than the AGM from the parts store.
Optoma are shit nowadays anyway.
Optima batteries suck as of the parent company’s sale about 10 years ago. Dead battery rate tripled in our fleet of cop cars (used for driving instruction).
