Optima battery ques.
hey
i can get a used yellow top for cheap but theres 1 thing to it. i might have to recharge it. the condition seems good if it dosent need charging. it was used for 4 month and then taken out and unused for a couple months and now might need a charging. will recharging a dead yellow top work and are there any affects to a recharged battery?
also which model number yellow top fits for our TL?
thanks
mike

Not sure BUT , i think u can take it to some place like Pep Boys and they charge it up for you. Might have to check on that. Once they charge it up (if they do) , they can tell u what the deal is with that battery.

the gel cells are made to be discharged and recharged!
the optimas can be run down and recharged numerous times! i know... yellow top that fits our cars is the deep cycle model# D34-950. part # 8012-021. go to the optima website, they just came out with new covers for the battery's!

the optima battery is designed do be drained and charged ofer and over. i had one sitting on my garage floor for 8 mnths (which is a no no) and she started the car up and is still running. that was over 5 years ago
