  • Lasted 9years 5 months.

I bought this battery September 2016. Been running it in a 14 XV Crosstrek with pretty powerful multi amp sound system. Battery just died today. FEB. 22 2026. Pretty amazing battery but price has gone up so much I might have to try a cheaper alternative.

  • Outstanding pick for a weekend warrior car that sits during the week
Style: Battery Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I've consistently used Optima Yellow Top D35 on my weekend fun car (heavily modified 2002 WRX) that sits during the week and sometimes the battery drains down. It start very strong every time. Most recently I left the car for about 3 weeks just after installing the new battery and without much driving on it, and came back expecting the battery to need a jump, but I turned the ignition and it fired right up. The extra cost is a million times justified in my mind considering my experience with cheap batteries that last about a year or two. I've had Optima Yellows last 8+ years easy and have not seen deterioration in quality in the maybe 15 years I've ran them on my two cars. My "battery for life" ... show more

  • Buy from a local store or you will have issues
Style: Battery Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
The battery's positive terminal is bulging up and cracking around it. It has no charge and will not hold a charge. Amazon required a code that was emailed to me that I had to be home to provide the delivery person, without telling me I had to do any of that until the attempted delivery. This delayed the delivery until the following evening just to receive a defective battery. ... show more

  • 2001 Porsche Carrera 911 (996) battery
Style: Battery Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Confirmed fit in 2001 Porsche 911 (996) 3.4L Coupe. This battery is the best battery you will get for your Porsche. Typically I get about 7 years out of the yellow top and most of us don't daily our 911s so a deep cycle battery like this one won't let you down. Deep cycle batteries are tough and Optima gel cell batteries resist vibration, which is the primary killer of a battery. My 996 tends to sip down electricity just sitting. Repeated draining of the battery will kill a standard battery , even a red top Optima... which are trash (IMO) but the yellow won't suffer nearly as bad as a standard battery. Car cranks nice and strong every time even if she sits for a week or two. Pro Tip - Mounting : This battery is NOT a direct fit to the battery box. Optima doesn't make a direct fit replacement battery for a Porsche 996 at the time of this post. A custom spacer is needed to lock down the battery so it doesn't move. Some people use a high density plastic, like a thick cutting board to fashion one. I used a 12mm or 13mm combo wrench as a spacer. It was the perfect size, shape and had the rigidity to do the job. I was able to really crank it down and the wrench had enough tension to act like a strong spring on the hold down tabs of the battery. This might sound like a "backyard fix". It works, and works great. I have had the battery in the Porsche for a year and 6,000 mi now. It has withstanded a lot of spirited driving , jars and bumps and still it's solid. Battery terminals are in the correct orientation and the Factory Porsche Battery cables are plenty long enough to reach. ... show more

  • So far so good....
Style: Battery Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
1-23-2011b, Yellow Top D35. Hi there, Summary: The price was good, it arrived without any shipping damage, so far the battery works fine. D35 Battery, $167, $194 after shipping. It took Amazon more than 2 days, UPS 3 days, for a 5 day total to ship to me. This (Amazon time) should be shorter... Background: I'm a HAM Radio operator, and my radios dont like Voltages less than 11.7V (They claim). I have a FT-857d, and and after talking on the radio for about 2-3 minutes, my cars battery battery was running at 12V, and in less than 5 minutes it was at or below 11.7V. This was on my 2-3/4 year old Autolite Platinum (RC=100) battery. It started my car fine, but its Voltage sagged under a 20 Amp load. And I was tired of the effects of battery acid leaking. So I decided to change to a AGM type battery, because it was more designed for how I was using the cars battery. And, it dose not leak or out gas acid... So far the Yellow top battery is holding up much better, than my 2 year old (flooded cell) battery was. One reason I choose this battery is it claimed its charged open circuit Voltage was (fully charged) 13.1V instead of the more common 12.65V. However, I'm seeing more like 12.9V, and 12.65V once its lightly loaded (used)... Bottom line: The price was right, took longer than I expected to ship to me, seems too work good so far... PS. It arrive at 12.6V that about 80-90% charged... PPS. It would be nice if they made a D34R (R = reversed positive/negative connections) its like a BCI-35) Yellow or Blue top battery... B ... show more

  • Long lasting, but pricey!
Style: Battery Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I purchased this yellow top Optima battery for one of my vehicles back in 2017, and in spite of a three year warranty, it has lasted seven years. I’m very happy about that. Unfortunately, the price today is over $100 more, which is more than double the inflation. Perhaps there are other factors causing the massive price jump, but it was quite a shock! ... show more
