I have a Red top optima relocated to the rear. I was told by Rotorsports racing that I needed to change to a batteries plus battery after I asked them to fix a battery drain problem. I've had the battery and alternator checked out and were good but after three days of non use in my car, my battery goes dead. SO, I was wondering what type of battery ppl are using in there 7's these days.

 

yellow top ftw.

 

how long have you had your yellow top and how often do you drive your car

 

i think there was a thread just last week about relocating batteries and what batteries people are using.

i also have a yellow top.

 

It's more $$$, but go with a Braille Dry Cell and relocate it in the engine bay or somewhere else.

 

I am using a Kinetic battery which fits in the bin perfectly.

 

im using a red top at the moment, i have a yellow top in an FC though but switching both to PC680's in a couple weeks

 

I use a pc680.

 

I have a honda yellow top located in the rear bin. Only driven 600 miles since installing it though.

 

Yellow top here since early 08. Still running super strong.

 

I use Braille. Sits in a custom bracket next to my M2 large SMIC. Car starts right up even when sitting outside for 12 hours in 30 degree weather.

 

yellow top.

DD in the spring/summer.
I either disconnect it/throw a trickle charger on it. or warm up the car twice a week.

and as far as I know optima are pretty easy to find and have decent warranty coverage. autozone/murrays/pepboys/oreily

 

those optima batteries suck! I had a yellow top and red top, went dead way too fast. Now I got a pc680 and its much better, smaller and real light which is great.

 

The current Yellow Tops are different than they were a few years ago. Due to issues, they redesigned them.
