I was talking to a coworker about EV's, and threw out the term 'Optima Yellowtop' during the conversation. This coworker remarked "Oh, you don't want to use those. They use to be a good battery, but their quality has gone way down and guys have been having a lot of trouble with them in the last couple years."
Has anyone else heard of similar reports?
