Optima batteries

I ran a kinetik hc2000 for about a week it was better then my optima redtop with 1000CA.

You could buy mine and blow any optimas out of the water :wink:

walmart battery in he sonata, red top in the monte ss, no problems, still has a a charge sitting in the garage for 3 weeks unstarted in the cold weather… idk

The yellow top that is in my DD right now, has a little history… all good. It started in a customer’s Lincoln Navigator, we pulled the system and he didn’t have room for the extra battery in his next car… said I could have it. So it sat on a shelf for a few years, then I threw it into the old Grand Cherokee for a while. then it sat for a while… dead on the shled so I trickle charged it and put it in a 98 Prelude for a few months. then it sat on a shelf for a few months. Then into my Old Taurus for about a year (however long I owned it) then it went into my Lincoln LS for over a year (again however long I owned it) and has been in my Dodge ever since… never a problem.

Now the “honda-sized” optimas… they never lasted a winter while the Del Sol was parked. but I also usually forgot to disconnect the battery thinking I was going to take it out again next weekend…

I don’t think I would pay the extra money though, if I didn’t have a system in the car.
