I'm very happy with this Blue Top Optima Marine Battery. I thought the price was okay
and I was happy with the way it was shipped



5 out of 5 stars Optima Red Top Diesel Application   March 27, 2010
Military Mom (Boston, MA)
I installed 2 Optima Red Top batteries in a 2000 Dodge Diesel Truck in 2002 to as replacements for the factory batteries which had failed. 9 years later, and 110K miles through Colorado / California / Massachusetts weather extremes 30+ jump starts rescuing others and much hard off-road use they have never failed (even at repeated 30below starts) and test as good as new. Completely worth the price.

I do not put extreme load on them (like winching).
I did repeatedly expose the batteries to months without starting or charging without disconnecting them; no concerns or degradation in performance and no-need to charge them prior; just turn the ignition and go.



4 out of 5 stars Short Warranty period   October 11, 2008

Although this IS a great battery, it ONLY has an 18 month free replacement warranty with an additional 18 month "pro-rated" warranty period that drops off quite dramatically. (I.E. after 27 months I ONLY got $50 credit towards a new battery!!) For a battery with this kind of premium price, I would expect it to have a longer replacement warranty.
Also I had a hard time finding a dealer to replace it. All (including optima customer service) told me to take it back to the selling dealer. I had to get the area rep involed. A lot of hassel!



3 out of 5 stars Different quality   June 13, 2007

Although both batteries were ordered at the same time in the same way, one performs good to excellent and the other one performs below specification (one batterie is older and was discharged when received). Only with a sophisticated computer-controlled recharging I was able to equalize the status of both batteries purchased at new. Your supplier/the batterie manufacturer should test and float batteries before shipping. Manufacturer did not supply any specification.
