    Well the optima has different color code meanings below. The duarlast is more inline with the red top. AGM technology is nice since it has can be discharged and topped off without the risk of killing it like a conventional battery with the extra reserve capacity to my understanding.
    • RedTop: The right fit for a daily driver or weekend cruiser that sees regular use, and relies on alternators for a regular recharge.
    • YellowTop: A deep-cycle battery perfect for accessories like trailer sound systems, electric fans/pumps, multiple lights, winches.
    • BlueTop: This deep-cycle battery is ideal for marine and RV that are kept in storage for long periods.

    Here’s a few pics I took today at Northwest OHV park. Had a blast and did some trails I never thought I would be able to do. First time airing down to 18 psi and I definitely noticed much better traction. Didn’t watch any of the rock racing but I heard it was really cool. Too busy hittin the trails!

    It was really fun. My dad popped both beads on his tire doing through a water hole. Luckily he has a full size spare. I told him running 12 psi was too low without beadlocks!
