Question Oddessy/Deka/Delco/Lifeline Battery Cost

I did some research..

I heard that these brands would do well for my aftermarket stereo too other than Optima Yellow Top D34...

Oddessy/Deka/Delco/Lifeline

Which models fit in our cars?

Any experience with these?

Which one is the best bang for the buck?


Thanks in advance

a red top is more than adiquit dor you.

the 2 i would recomend are the red top optima and the exide orbital.

as long as teh battery is a drycell type id say its probably good.

Dont mean to burst a lot of peoples bubbles, but i work for a city which tested the Optima battery. It failed badly!! So bad that even at a severe discount from the supplyer, we refused to buy any. THe Oddessy did quite well and is what was chosen after testing. Just my $0.02 worth

cofidis, so maybe u guys had a shitty Optima.

I have a lot of neon/lead and at least 750RMS of stereo, and I can pump all of that for 1 hour, and then start the car without any hesitation and drive off. Optima is awesome with my experience.
