Battery OPTIMA or OEM Mercedes

had one in a car that rolled 4 times and it’s still working

Get a OPTIMA Yellowtop D35 Like I Did, I've Never Had Any Startup Issues Eversince, I Actually Regret Not Buying One Before I Spent $120 For a Battery Tender Jump Box From Amazon.com

Had a yellow optima that went 10 years and it started to slow a bit. Replaced the yellow with a red 6 years ago and it’s still fine.

I use oem bc I get discounted price else I’d use optima, bc I personally on my cars with optimas have never had a problem and oldest is coming up on 9 years

I went to the store and traded the core of my perfectly "good" DieHard Gold (~18 mos old) and spent $400 on an Optima Yellow Top. The difference was immediate. Interior lights were brighter, mirrors functioned normally, no 'system off' garbage, truck opened and closed without hesitation. It starts strong and fast. With the temperature dropping, the peace of mind has been 100% worth the price. I even put the portable jump starter back in the garage. It worked.

I bought a red top optimum for my 2019 forester sport. Have had it in for almost 2 years without issue thus far.

I had a Red Top Optima battery, but it’s so dead that even my NOCO AGM charger won’t recognize or charge it.

my Optima Red Top failed after 2 years & 7 months. this is the last time I'll buy one.

Optimas are not the brand they once were, I would never put one in my vette after the brand new $300 red top I put in my Durango basically exploded a week after I put it in.

Optimas don’t seem to hold up any better than the AGM from the parts store.
