why do people hate on optima yellow tops


Recommended Posts

You can be a redneck like some and claim to of seen real batteries gone bad...

but the truth is, optima is oldschool, back in the day, sure Optima was the shit! previously from that, no one is really running battery banks full of optima anything like " tiny e rection" claims. After all he is a redneck in bumbfucked Mississippi <_<

Its not that Optima batteries suck and is the reason why people dont like them, its more so that the price of their batteries is outrageous for what you get.

You can easily buy a XS Power or Kinetik in the same price range of the Optima and not only have a stronger battery, but also smaller

hmm so what would be in the 200 price range that would be stronger then a optima? for under the hood? just wondering and learning :drinks: since i bought a yellow top over the summer :peepwall:

XS S1200

Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

no battery banks full of optimas? how long you been around?

lets see, the year is 2006, kinetik is already on the market, as well as xs power. there were tons of vehicles at finals that year with optima battery banks. ever heard of scottie johnson for example?

as for your insults, you have no reason be saying any of that shit. i notice you say mississippi. maybe you think im johnathan price or something.... he is from mississippi, not me.

and what does scottie johnson run now 8)

well I've had experience with xs,kinetik, and yellow top. The kinetik i have how hc2000 is starting to swell up, had the yellow top before the xs and when i swapped the yellow top for the d3400 (yt was a 34/78) definitely can tell a difference.

If your battery swells you are over charging it, if it hisses its being overcharged.

I run two Optima batteries. Now complaints here of all the guys in my car club we have owned about 20 plus optima batteries and not had problems. HAd more problems with kinetics going bad than optima batteries.

Just a question, my starting batt is under my backseat...I think you need a batt made for that, if so, do any of these companies even provide batteries for this?
