Looking for Top and Side post Batt - Optima only choice?

[Omarvelous 10+ year member]

Upgrading my electrical.

Wanna replace the hood batt for a batt that has both top and side post. So far Optima is all I can find, and their prices are steeeep, especially since my 2nd batt in the trunk will be a Kinetik 2400.

What other brands out there have the top n side mount?

My dilema is, i'm trying to keep oem wiring, do the big 3, and run pwr/gnd to kinetik.

2007 Maxima, and the + is pretty unique, and has an integrated fuse by the post. So i figure it would be best If i let it have it's own post, and do my dirt with the others.

Deka Intimidator. It's an AGM battery like the Optima but in a standard case. I have the standard Group 34 two post battery and it's great. Remy Battery is also excellent.
