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.

Pros: still kickin at 10 years

Cons: run to the ground

I have have good luck bringing sulfated Optimas to my local Interstate Battery. They’ve brought several back from the dead for me and they went on to last a very long time.

Pros: last a very long time

I like AGM batteries. Using optimas now, whenever these finally die I'll try another brand. 4 years in now and I can't notice any loss of capacity yet. They work amazing when it is like 0 degrees F, too.

Pros: no loss of capacity

Pros: liked Optimas

Cons: quality has gone down

I have definitely experienced said quality issues on multiple Optima batteries. They all lasted about a year for me.

Cons: short lifespan, quality issues
