Wow- good find! Thanks PORKSODA!

A question though (and I know it has been asked a million times)... if going with an Optima, what is preferred in an Audio application? Yellow top or red? I know that the yellow is a dual purpose starting and deep cycle, while the red is starting- I don't let the system run with the engine off anyway... so wouldn't the red top be a better choice between the two?

Opinions? Pros, Cons, etc...

You have a beard of a mysterious sea captain. I would follow you to hell and back.

Yellow. Better reserve capacity is gonna help you engine on or off. That's why you're using a second battery anyway.

Hmm. Aren't most people running the XS Power AGM batteries? Wouldn't it be bad to have a Yellow Top under the hood with XS Power batteries in the trunk? I was actually thinking about swaping my yellow top out for a D240
