Reviews of OPTIMA battery

My old car had an Optima Red Top in it for 10 years and never had a battery issue- but again, sitting on a tender most of the time.

Personally, I have a fondness for Optima batteries, particularly the Yellow Top, in any vehicle where there are a lot of accessories to run, though I have a Red Top in my daily driver.

I don't know, but I just bought an Optima Red Top battery with a three year waranty sold at a store that has a store in every city.

I use optima. Highly recommend it too

Hrp: Optima. Best batteries out there. Have only had 2 since 2001! Red top, yellow and blue. Red should be sufficient unless you've got mega stereo. 800 watts.

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.

I've been running a red top Optima for about four years now and no complaints.

Have two red tops in my 05 GMC. Sneaky suspicion one is bad. They were new when I got the truck six years ago.

Went to start truck after sitting five days and it was dead. Meter showed 12.1 and it charged in an hour which is very fast. Truck would turn over but not run. Checked charge again, primary at 12.4 and secondary at 12.7. Swapped places and truck starts, runs, all accessories work now.

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.
