Reviews of OPTIMA parts For Business

i have a optima red top in my drift car. its been in the car for atleast 4 years. 3 of which i have owned it. its been crushed, deformed, on fire and drained dead multiple times (always when diagnosing electrical issues or wiring up lights) and it still works great. it sits in my car hooked up and unused for weeks at a time with no issues.

I have a pair of Optimas (older) and they're dead-ass solid.

They’re pricey but I’ve always sworn by Optimas

General consensus is that the yellow top optima battery is best. Also, the optima is the only aftermarket battery that has the vent hole in the same place as the OEM battery.

I found my first optima red top. It was dead when I found it. I just happened to have an agm battery charger/restorer. It took three days of sitting on the machine reconditioning, and then a day or so of charging afterwards. It held a charge forever. It was made in 05 or something like that, and it ran great until this year. I have since replaced it with a new one, and it works great as well.

I have an optima red top 34/78. Its incredible. Been almost 3 years in and no matter how much I throw at it on the trails I dont get dead cells. The individual gel cells are less perceptible to shake damage from rough terrain.

I have an optima, have had others, love them. The only issue I've ever had with an optima is getting a severely discharged battery to take a charge, but through youtube i figured out it was an issue with my charger and started putting another one in parallel.

Optima has been garbage for about a decade now, ever since they were bought out and production moved out of the country. Quality immediately took a huge dive.

I'd be more concerned about the Optima battery - they have been crap quality for years now. Probably better than VW OEM junk though.

Purchased one a few years ago, bad a year later and yes I have a good battery tender.
