What are YOU working on?
Optima YellowTop Battery Revival
What are we doing today?
After leaving the lights on, both OPTIMA Batteries are fully DISCHARDED. We try to revive them in this video without ruining them.
What are we using to complete the work?
flashlight
battery charger
extension cord
Do you have any concerns about today's work?
Just hoping these expensive Optima batteries aren't ruined.
Why did you decide to do this?
Because a guy left the lights on.
What's your favorite thing about this work?
We hope this video helps encourage you to start or continue working on whatever project you've got sitting around. We hope you have a great day. We appreciate our subscribers and viewers. A BIG THANKS to each of you. Remember, this is something YOU CAN DO so REACH OUT with QUESTIONS and don't be afraid of starting-continuing-finishing the work your project needs.
We enjoy engaging with our 2stallgarage family. Thank you for watching today and God bless.
What would you improve, if anything?
I would have turned the lights off. :)
Any additional thoughts?
We complete work in a small 2 stall garage with limited space. You can do anything you would like to do, no matter the space you have, just plan accordingly and adjust your plans to the size of your workspace. We Believe In YOU!
What's coming to the shop in the future?
LATEST Honda BIG RED Video!
Are you able to do lots of work in a limited space?
Yes, without question. The biggest issues we face in our 2stallgarage is organization. Keeping the workspace organized and both stalls clear of clutter really helps with motivation, which then helps with productivity. Basically, if I see a clean workspace, I'm much more ready to dive into a project or even just scheduled maintenance like today's oil change.

Thanks for choosing OPTIMA Batteries (our batteries are AGM, not “gel” batteries). Fully-charged, your YELLOWTOPs will measure about 13.0-13.2 volts. We don't recommend a charge rate that exceeds 10 amps for safety reasons. We don't know anything about your charger other than the rate you chose (30 amps) and the time you chose for charging (130 minutes).

I still push and pop clutch

I used Optima batteries for year in my Jeeps but I switches a few year ago to Odyssey Extreme in my 2017 Jeep JK.

Hey you need the Red top battery

@stevewheatley243

Both Optima and Everstart batteries are made by Johnson Control. Ill keep buying Everstart and save money. They really are excellent batteries.

@doax3333

No no no! When they were made in Denver they would last 10yrs. If you are in cold weather go with any east penn made AGM. If you have massive power drains go with X2

I had a red optima before 2000. It was great. But i bought a yellow one a few years ago and it didnt last long. I didnt understood that the quality vent down, so i bought another one. But same shit. So now i realised its bad buy...

@donowens5883

Bring the battery into a warm place then recharge the battery

@1marcelfilms

It would be worth it if the battery lasted 10 years

@int53185

My new red top died after two months. Optima quality really went downhill. Used to be great batteries. No response from Optima for warranty.

Tacoma OEM batteries are Sh**. It will corrode the terminals, cables and ruin your hold down bracket. It will destroy your wiring like a cancer Switching to optima or alternate AGM Battery is the first mod within the first month's of owning the truck.

I have two Optima red tops that are are 10 & 11 years old. One still works great and the other has a bad cell but it will still start the car on a warm day.

I paid $50 for a red top that had never been used. Was couple years old already when I got it. Threw it on my car and it fired up. Hardly drove the car and battery stayed good up until few months ago. It'll jump off and run but won't hold a charge. Now of a battery that's several years old never charged and works that good I'd have to say they are worth the $ imo. If I could gave afford another I'd bought one in a heart beat.
