Product Description
Optima D35 YellowTop battery provides the extra performance and deep-cycling capability that your vehicle demands if it has a lot of accessories like running lights, high-performance stereo/AV system, winches, or hydraulics. The unique SpiralCell design provides a strong and clean power source, ensuring the safety of you, your family and the environment. The Optima battery is ideal for seasonal use because of its very low self-discharge rate. That means you can store your seasonal vehicles all winter without regular charging and still spring out of the starting block when winter is over.

Wow! I am both relieved and impressed. I just purchased two of these batteries. After reading previous horror stories about damaged/no packaging I have to admit I was hesitant. I have had other problems with Amazon.com in the past. I just couldn't resist the price here, and with free shipping it sealed the deal. I guess whoever does the shipping here got the message about poor/damaged packaging. Mine were both delivered undamaged by UPS(this is an extraordinary occasion), and to my surprise the boxes were designed like tanks. Extra thick cardboard boxes with an entire lining of corrugated cardboard reinforcement all the way around the battery. The batteries inside were in perfect condition!!! A+ job here by Amazon.com!!! BTW shipping was also lighting fast....I ordered on Sat and batteries arrived on Tues.

Battery works well and was delivered in great packaging, not a scratch on it. Looks like they finally got the message.
A great battery, but amazon ships it so poorly that it will always arrive broken! March 17, 2010

Don't but it here. Order it in a store. It will cost a bit more, but it will come in one piece. Amazon really needs to learn how to package an item that is small, but heavy. My arrived very damaged probably due to being dropped by unsuspecting mail persons. It looks like a tiny package, but it weights a ton. I can't blame the mail person since Amazon put no protection around the battery, just a flimsy box!

It doesn't get any better than Optima batts. The yellow top is fantastic for heavy drawing power accessories like 3 amps and subs. Of course you want another battery when you go over 2000 watts on your amp like I am but just one of these babies can handle anything under that. Awesome cranking amps gives you perfect start no matter what. I just now replaced my old Yellow Top that has been in my car for 6 years and it was still working when I swapped it out. Just wasn't providing the full 800 cranking amps it used to. Still started the car perfectly even though it was down to only 400 cranking amps at that point. That's a dependable batt.
