Optima Red top = Garbage
Returned my 4th one to advance auto parts on Saturday in 18 months.
All of them end up with a shorted cell. err
As an experiment I left the last one on my back porch for 6 weeks not connected to anything, tried to charge it and discovered a shorted cell.
As another experiment I've been running my Supra (Golf has a conventional battery) on a walmart lawn and garden battery for 2 months. It hasn't had an issue yet.
So be aware.
