Great battery for power hungry needs
Back in 2005, I bought a red top Optima Battery. It was still working in 2013 but it was getting weak and would not start the car if I let the car sit for more than 2 days without starting it. It was holding up well if I started it daily. Wow! - 8 years running the same battery. I work out of my car in the construction field. I run a lot of 12 volt accessories in my car. Some of which I leave plugged in and running for hours at a time This time, I opted for the yellow top deep cycle starting battery. The side posts connect to my vehicle and I use the top post for a quick connect booster kit. The new battery is working very well as I expected. These batteries are awesome. They don't leak. They don't gas. In my opinion, they are the best. Shipping was great. No worries. It came packaged in heavy duty protected cardboard.

CAUTION !!!!
Be prepared to order another one. I have been using, charging & restoring 12v batteries for decades. These Optima’s are generally a very good battery for rugged & abusive use. (Plows, winches, any type of heavy amp draw usage) I have a plow that also has a 10K lb winch that gets mounted to the rear of the F250, and plugs into the 00 cable to the front of the truck. Thai truck has 2-yellow tops. At any rate, I have removedthe winch from the equation. And I have bought several yellow-tops for my F250 over the years. One will last me 3-years MAX. That’s w/one driveway that I plow ! That’s not very good. At any rate, lately I have been receiving BRAND NEW yellow tops DOA !!! Or, after 30-days the battery is DEADER THAN A DOOR NAIL ! It’s so dead (drained) that the Optima charger CANT EVEN BEGIN THE CHARGE ! Lol !!!All JUNK !!! So, you have to TRICK the dead better by attaching another battery that’s got voltage in parallel,and attach the Optima charger to the deader than a door-nail battery & the charger will begin to charge because it’s reading the battery that does have some voltage left in it ! Once this happens, remove the good-battery from the equation & the deader than a door-nailOptima battery will continue charging. That is, as long as it will accept a charge, and there isn’t any internal damage.So, I’ve had to call Amazon & tell them that the brand-new yellow-too Optima battery they just sold me for approx’y $280 is NO GOOD ! So,they can’t have you ship it BACK to them, so they do refund your $ & you end up stuck w/a bright yellow boat-anchor ! Which really sucks because then you’re stuck w/having to properly dispose of it. I’ve even tried & tried & tried to salvage these DOA batteries, to absolutely NO AVAIL. So,you just have to order another one & hope you get the luck of the draw ! What I think is happening, is AMAZON buys these batteries that are good batteries, by the BULK, and they DONT get bench-tested prior to getting shipped out to customers ! I bet they get taken right off of AMAZONS dusty old shelf & shipped out w/out as much as a volt-check ! Which really is piss poor, because AMAZON could truly save themselves & us Customers A LOT OF $ & A LOT OF HEADACHE if they just simply did a load-test & then a quick charge before it goes out da door !So, I JUST HAD a yellow top optima arrive DOA this past spring ‘21. And I’m going to order another one today. And Jesus Christ, what happens if I get ANOTHER yellow-top battery that arrives DOA, again !??? Get my gd $ back & have to keep this one too !?? Amazon will start thinking I’m pulling a fast one on them ! Well, they best not, because I’ve been a loyal PAYING customer of theirs for DECADES. So, here we go ! Let’s see what happens. Maybe I’ll be back adjusting this review !?! Either way, be careful around batteries, they can ruin your day REAL FAST if you don’t know what it is you’re doing !Over & Out !

Optima's are the best battery I've ever used
I currently have an Optima in each one of my 5 vehicles. 3 trucks and 2 cars. Mostly I use the Red tops but this yellow was a better fit for the vehicle i was putting it in. You cant go wrong getting an Optima, no matter what you plan to put your battery through.(Update)I have been using this in my car for the last 3 years with no problems. It endures -5 degree nights and my car starts in the morning with no hesitation. It also preforms well in moderate summers between 95 and 100 deg on average. I park the car outside in the weather so the battery gets to experience whatever temp mother nature throws at it.****Update4+ years after purchase this battery is still working great. (So are the rest of my Optima's) For a year and a half this has been in my full sized off-road rig. It has a Chevy 350 with modifications, 180 amp alternator, a 12,000 pound winch and dual 14 inch radiator electric fans. I don't run the truck every day or even every week some times so when I am done with the truck I disconnect the battery until I need the truck again. It sits through the winter and summer and every time I need the truck it starts no problem. Even after years of use and sitting around I can count on it to start the truck in -20 Deg winters or 95+ Deg summers then run all day/night under harsh conditions.

Worth it.
Just started my Jeep after it sat dormant for over a month as if I ran it an hour ago. I have another Jeep that is driven infrequently, and it will get an Optima next time.
