Re: Optima battery

These are great batteries.

Any battery should be charged slow, that's just how you get longevity out of them. You never want to do a fast charge on one if you don't have to.

I have one of these in my Charger. The car sits from early November until mid April. Out of laziness I never think to throw the charger on it throughout the winter and so far it has survived 5 winters.
