Absolutely not true. I use an Optima battery, works great. Have for a few years now since my 2nd garbage oem battery went out. Or was it the 3rd?

Pros: works great
Vehicle: Subaru

OPTIMA Battery

Currently running a yellow Optima, 3 years and going strong. I don't recall what the OE battery was but it crapped out after 2 years in mild California weather.

Pros: going strong, three years

OEM KIA Battery

The only issue I’ve had with this car is the battery, they usually die in about 3years, but they are AGM batteries and they usually die within that Timeframe in Phoenix,AZ Anyway because of the Heat.

Cons: dies in 3 years, short lifespan
Vehicle: Kia Optima
Mileage: 321868 km

OPTIMA Battery

Optima seems to be the only brand of cylindrical Pb batteries for automotive use... pretty much every other automotive Pb battery is prismatic.

That's the first I've seen one fail this way.

Cons: fail this way
