The reason for the "R" is that the polarity is reversed. At the end of video you might be surprised by are long testing of the Optima Batteries. Recorded in HD.

We have had very good luck with our Odyssey Extreme batteries in our drag cars. We pull some pretty good amps with,

Had an Optima in my truck like 14 years ago and got about 7 out of it... Went to an Odyssey after that and it was still going strong after I sold the truck this summer... Odyssey and Odyssey ONLY.

Too bad Optima moved manufacturing to Mexico and has subsequently seen a huge decline in their quality. They used to be an awesome battery. Looks like Odyssey has them beat hands down and as a plus, they’re made in the USA.

Alternators only charge a car battery to about 80%. To properly maintain an AGM battery you must periodically give them a sympathetic FULL charge every one to two months. Then they will last many years. Otherwise they will step down and degrade.

Optima was owned by Bertil Gylling and he retired in 99. A year later Johnson Controls and Gylling sat down for some dealings and the company was sold. Optima is fully owned by Johnson Controls the largest battery manufacturer in the world. They practically make every battery seating on a shelf rn, no matter the brand. Quality control is not there biggest concern, I’d say profit margins are a slightly more imperative.

several of my fellow boaters have had bad experiences with Optimas. They have gone over to Odyssey's and have never been let down by them. Optimas are unrealiable and are to be avoided at all costs they said.

Johnson Controls really knows how to screw up great companies when they buy them out. 👍

I have no idea why the Odyssey is being compared to Optima its like comparing a Ferrari to a pinto. Optima used to make great batteries but now they are average at best.

I have a DieHard platinum battery, which Sears offered for a few years. It is rebadged Odessey. It came with a 7 year warranty, but I'm 8 years in without a problem. I highly recommend them, and they will be what go into all my vehicles. They even make one for my Harley.

I know Clarios is supposed tl be Johnson Controls. But I've sold many many Optima's in the 5 years Ive been dealing parts. The Optima's that were labeled Johnson Controls held up much much better then the ones we now sell with the Clarios lable. Im not sure why. I do think the quality control has gone down a lot. They just charge a lot for the brand recognition. I love how Odyssey has a lot more true OEM group sizes. Im going with an Odyssey for my Mustang. They are the only company i know that makes a 94r AGM.

Odyssey has better wide dual terminal posts spacing for my needs. Group 78 But I’ve been using Two Yellow top optima’s in my diesel pickup over 11 years now. They are still going.

I would like to know what is failing with the optima batteries. Mine is a couple years old and still going. Maybe I shouldn't wait for failure.

@ddbear8786

I went through several Optima Yellow Tops in recent years - they lose charge fast and have to replace them every 1 or 2 years. I am reading their manufacturing sucks after they moved to Mexico. I used to have great results with the original Yellow Top of the early 2000s. I’ll try Odessey Extreme.
