Optima battery problem
I bought a Optima blue top last July. It failed to start boat moter in the fall.I thought perhaps something caused it to drain off.This spring after charging and watching it with nothing hooked on it.It will not hold a good charge.I'll try to return it tomorrow but can not find reciept.I'm not happy to say the least :evil: This thing did not last 6 mo.and they are not cheap.Anyone elese have any feedback on this product. What is you favorite AGM battery?

Re: Optima battery problem
charge it for a couple of days on a 10 amp charge ... if you trickle charge it at 2 amps it will take forever... i have a red one in the race car and knock on wood its been good .. but you need the 10 amp charge it

Re: Optima battery problem
Thanks for the info Whitey! I have A pro Mariner Prosport 20 on board charger.I let it hooked up for 3 days.Battery checked good.After sitting a couple days it needed a charge.Good news is I took it back to where I bought it and they exchanged it for A new one no Questions asked. Hope I got a good one this time.
