Hey guys, im looking for some brands of batteries that have a good warranty and are readily available at most parts stores. We have o reilly, advance auto, napa, mills fleet farm, etc.

 

Optima Red Top Group 34/78. Rated for 800 cca but put out a lot more. These are sealed batteries that wont leak battery acid down the inside of your fenders, and there is no corrosion at the terminals so you dont have to clean your clamps. Plus, they are vibration resistant, have the accessory posts where you can hook up other 12V accessories and carry a 3 year full replacement warranty. Saving money buy buying wet cells isnt saving money in the long run. There are some guys that have gotten 8+ years out of the Optimas.

Picked mine up for less than $150 each.

 

i know and i wanted to get optimas, but my other battery is going a LOT faster than i anticipated and i have nowhere near the money for red tops, im going out of town this weekend and have no choice but to get a normal wet cell battery.....do i like that option, bo, but i only have 280 in my acct. and that wont net me 2 optimas

 

ok then, I would try to find a sealed battery.


I think Interstates are pretty good.

 

by sealed are you talking maint. free?

 

X2 on getting a dry cell my vote is for odyssey, but they maybe hard to find locally second is the Red tops. OReillys has some knock off Red tops there suppose to be the "same". Make sure you replace both of them and try your best to get 2 with close to the same manufacturing date.


Never mind...

 

....typed all that then saw my post huh?

 

just changed out my optimas
had the yellow ones
one was totally done and the second one had only a 1/4 of what it should have had
got 2 for $65 a piece with 7 years warrenty
now if i could only remember the name of em

 

Walmart Everstart Maxx batteries, best bang for the buck..... They are made for Walmart only by Delphi which is also the AC Delco brand name.

 

well, i went to Wal Mart, Advance Auto and Mills Fleet Farm. I was looking for most powerful battery with a good warranty still. Advance auto was 750 CCA, wal mart was 770 CA and finally, the MFF batteries, which i got, were as follows.











So thats why i got the MFF batteries.
