Reviews of OPTIMA battery

Optima batteries are garbage.

My last Optima was outlasted by a Sears Die Hard.

I put one in my car and it worked fantastic for 3 years no issues and is still going strong.

I have the Yellow top in my 1983 Scrambler and have had no problems with it. I treat it awful in winter I will go weeks with out driving it and then crank the jeep and go use the winch and lights sometimes idle for long periods and the not drive for a few more weeks. Cranks every time.

On my Porsche I run an Optima which lasts 7+ years and is a very strong battery.

Optima was once a great battery. However a few years back they moved their production and since then its been a nightmare of failures.

No they are garbage now. Source: we sell them at work. We also warranty them. Don't buy an Optima. Ever since Johnson bought them, they went downhill.

I've never been impressed with an Optima battery.

I like them and that's what I use in my Toyota (Lexus). Had it a couple of years and so far so good. One neat thing about the Optimas is that since it's 100% sealed there's no worry about tipping it or having to wear gloves during transport and installation. It's also lighter.

While I did that I went ahead and grabbed a Red Top Optima Battery. Got everything back together, it turns over great but it doesn't spark.
