I have had problems with Optima Batteries going dead before there time and it’s hard to get a replacement even with their longer warranty. Got a dual post yellow top that has died and even having it on a trickle charger. That’s why I searched the Odyssey battery and believe I’m going to bight the bullet and pay the higher price. Thanks for your video.

Lead-acid Batteries normally corrode terminals, cables and hold down brackets. End up buying Battery pads for the terminals to try and control it. With AGM Battery no corrosion. Sam's club AGM died, 2 in 2 years. Finally went back to Optima, on year 4, no problem. I will get a odyssey battery next time to try them out.

I have a 2004 F-350 and I bought 2 yellow tops for the truck, because the 6.0 Powerstroke takes two batteries. I have had nothing but issues for the last 4yrs. My truck ran it for 1yr and sat for 1yr and the batteries went bad and wouldn't recharge, so swapped them and the battery lasted 6mo and I swapped it again under the warranty and it lasted 6mo. So I went back to autozone and this time they swapped me for odyssey batteries and covered the extra price difference, immediately I could tell the difference, my truck never started this fast in 9 degree weather and my voltage is higher like 14.0v vs the yellow tops at max 13v. I like that the odyssey's have a 4yr warranty vs 3yr from Optima. The edit was to fix some errors I made.

Last red top Optima lasted 9 years. It’s 25NOV2022 and pretty sure it was a Mexican made one. It lasted a very long time driving my truck 1-3 times a month. I got a yellow top to help with the downtime of driving her, but the F150 never needed a jump after driving in last 6 months but letting her sit for 1-2 weeks needed a jump. 9 years on that optima tho. I’m sold.

I drive about 1200 miles per year average...about 25 miles per week average along with an occasional road trip 50 miles round trip. Garage kept..

I got a odyssey battery recently for my 1966 Ford Mustang 289. I don’t start it all the time & I wanted a battery that could perform when the car was stored for weeks without it being started. I heard the Optima batteries are not made the same since the manufacturing plant moved from the US to Mexico. The Odyssey battery was almost $300 bucks from AutoZone & I had to order it. & it’s heavy AF! I like the red top & the handle that feels like it might break at anytime to land on your feet when carrying it around LOL. It’s nice to have the piece of mind that my classic car will fire now at any time. 🤓

In abusive conditions, the optima will not last even a few months. I was a fan 20 years ago, when they were made in Aurora Colorado. They lasted, but always short on ah compared to the same group size. They are absolutely trash these days, there's a reason you don't see them in parts stores, to many warranty claims. Northstar and Odyessy are FAR superior, for about the same price. I wouldn't give an optima to my worst enemy. They ARE that bad.

I needed a battery for an engine stand so less than 3 years ago I purchased an Optima for my truck and used the Napa for the stand (on trickle charger).

You need to educate yourself a bit. The heavier the better is more lead and more power. Lithium has a 40% reduction in capacity below freezing and also doesn’t have good CCA to start a motor. AGM all the way! 👍 Also no matter how a battery is when it drops below 50% capacity damage sets in. Lastly, Optima batteries suck because they they used to be 99.9% pure lead when they were made in Denver. Research man.

Do not buy optima batteries they are pure garbage. I bought one going off the reputation big mistake. Now optima once upon a time was the best battery, But that’s when they were American made. That is not the case anymore, they went from the best to the absolute worst. Last time I bout one I had it replaced 12 times in a year red top yellow top. Got tired of it bought a no name battery for 1/4 the price, which brings us up to date 10 yrs later. I still have the no name, car still fires right up have not replaced the battery once no issues!! Choice is yours do you like spending almost 3x less for normal or do you want to 3x more for a gift wrapped p.o.s?

Optima Batteries are junk now they're not being made in the United States. I bought one a few years ago it failed in less than a year. Bought an Odyssey 3 years ago and not a single issue great battery.
