Your alternator probably just shit the bed. Was on its last of its life then the added \"stress\" of a stereo system made it kill itself.

Pros: handles stereo system
Cons: short alternator life

Anyway I know people talk a lot of crap about them but I use Optima batteries in anything that can fit them. Mainly because I have a bunch of cars and many of them sit around. Its nice to know that if the battery dies I can condition and recharge it and get back to normal and not worry.

Pros: can condition and recharge
Vehicle: Alfa Romeo Giulia

I am entertaining an Optima Yellow Top this time. It's $339, for reference, and I have a feeling it will outlast/outperform the OEM.

Pros: outlast/outperform the OEM
Vehicle: Volkswagen

I did and what a misnomer 'dry cell' is. Yes they are great and expensive. Both standard and 'drycell' have liquid eletrolyte so it's weird to start talking about 'drycell'

Pros: great and expensive
Cons: misnomer 'dry cell'

The red top really isn't that special and optima's tech in general is more beneficial in regard to durability than current delivery.

Pros: good durability
Cons: not special, poor current delivery

Optimas quality fell off hard when they moved manufacturing to Mexico. They've been riding on their previous reputation ever since.

Cons: quality fell off hard

I went through two of them in a season in my trail Jeep. I think years ago they were great batteries and the quality was there but now it’s just a brand name but junk product.

Pros: good quality (past)
Cons: short lifespan, poor quality
Vehicle: Jeep
