Battery OEM Nissan or OPTIMA

I had an older optima yellow top last about 10 years. I miss when that quality was available

On my 2014 Leaf SV I put in an Optima Yellowtop and it lasted over 7 years.

I have a 10 year old yellow top Optima (not even the nicest thing out there) that starts a 440 (often 9 months between starts) every time. I haven't even put a tender on it in the last 5 years.

Optima yellow top. It's around $300 ish. The last one was replaced after a decade. The new one I have will probably be the last one.

The original Nissan battery in my 2015 still lives on in my 78 vette. I replaced the Nissan battery because I was going on a 7600 mile total trip and didn't want to take chances.

We have a 2023 Rogue and had to have the original battery replaced only a few months in. Had the run around of multiple long battery tests.

a used 2013-2015 Nissan Leaf. Tennessee winters should be at least somewhat mild so they should be gentler on the battery, and it's best if you can park it somewhere in the shade. They often go for $2k-$3k private sale around me because the battery life is fading and nobody wants a car with 40-60 miles of range after "filing up." Slow charging using a standard 110V outlet is better for the battery and should suffice for your use case as long as you can charge overnight and maybe longer over weekends.

One day my alternator went and killed the optima battery

The OEM battery was junk and crapped out the next day after I got home from purchasing it.

replace battery twice..something is draining it..and 3 x not starting...had to use a jump starter to get it to turn over... no codes registering and dash indicators are not helping..once I get it running all warnings disappear....so I drive around with when is it going to happen again....
