Rating 4.0

IMHO, Exide works well till the last second and then dies off without any symptoms. Amaron shows alot of symptoms like extra cranking and lights dim for interior and dash lights when it's nearing its demise. Hence I moved to amaron. So should you.

Pros: Amaron shows symptoms
Cons: Exide dies without symptoms

I had a couple of Optimas back in the early 00’s that I took from truck to truck to truck. I had a couple of them for about 10 years. they used to be nearly indestructible.

Pros: long lifespan, nearly indestructible

My 09 yellow top just bit the dust. I was able to get it charged back above 13v but it's so old I didn't want to risk it with winter coming.

Pros: long lifespan
Cons: failed, old

My old Celica was at 11 years of daily on a Yellow Top, including at least 3x when it sat to dead and recharged just fine. When I got a new car and stopped driving it, it only lasted another 6 months of infrequent driving after that.

Pros: long lifespan, recharged fine
Cons: short lifespan with infrequent driving
Vehicle: Toyota Celica

I replaced it with an Optima Yellow top battery. It lasted just shy of 3 years. Replaced it in July with another Yellow Top under warranty.

Pros: warranty replacement
Cons: lasted just shy 3 years
