I just had to replace my battery and chose to get an Eveready with the same cold cranking amps as the factory battery. What I want to know, for next time, is would I have been better served to spend the extra $110 bucks and get the optima or is their really that much of a difference.

 

Do a search by pulling down the tab above and clicking on "advanced searc". Enter Optima battery and you should get some stuff to read. I think you will find that some have had trouble, some swear by them. I considered buying one myself when I recently had to replace my battery, but decided against it since I do not have a lot of audio equipment. I ended up getting a heavy duty Interstate. I've bought them in the past and had good luck.

 

Thanks.
