Alabama thread!

Battery took a shit. What do I replace with?! Optimum yellow top?

 

Blue top. Marine

 

Sweet thanks!

 

How come marine? Do you know what size?

 

Its a deep cycle. Works better with accessories you may bolt on in the future. Im gunna get one so i can let my dometic fridge run all the time and just leave it in the truck

Edit sorrt just relized the yellow is a deep cycle as well. I know a guy that runs a blue top and swears by them let me ask. Theres also north star and odysee

 

Yellow top is a combo starting and deepcycle. Blue top is a true deep cycle. How much do you plan on running off the battery alone without the truck running?

 

friend has optimum battery, can confirm it does not start the vehicle any better than the lesser batteries.

no one pops their hood to show a battery off except overlanders.

 

I just need one that can run the fridge full time and not die. Also it matters if your gunna be winching. Helps alot actually. Im starting to like this one. Its cheaper lol.

It’s done

Blue top red bottoms

 

like i said, overland AF

i'm just to cheap in all honesty

 

Thanks for the quick help! I had to just hit the nearest advance auto

 

Not much more than a normal cheapo

 

Hells ya.

 

how much did you pay?

 

$305 out the door

 

I used to run Optima. Heat down here kills them. Plus most places will tell you right quick if you want to use the warranty you have to deal with Optima directly not them. Few places here dropped them because they don’t refund their vendors for warranty issues hence why everyone makes you deal directly with Optima.

 

I guess I shall find out.

 

No problem bud

 

Ive never heard of to many folks having issues with them. But thats on the Mi side as well. Hope its good for ya. I know a couple folks right now with them in there truck. @JBTacoma has 2 yellow tops and told me he loved em

 

Nothing wrong with overlanding or overlanders just because 10% of them are only in it for the gram and to try and make money dosnt mean the other 90% should also get that bad name. Ill take pics of my set up and post them to show it off yes, but i also use my shit when ever i get a chance to. And i do it as well so people that are looking at the same products i have can ask questions and get honest answers back from me.
