[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8553830, member: 634282"] I went through 6 alts for a honda from Orileys.Two swapped out and throw ons from warranty..Later to find benched before leaving several stores before I finally got one that benched fine, and worked,.Took approx two weeks to find a good alt...I did have an issue with RED TOP/OPTIMUS batteries a couple years ago on my truck.Two new batteries and ended up damaging my alt..replaced the alt then replaced two new RED TOPS upon warranty, Damaged alt and again new batteries..Trashed the RED TOPS, and Replaced my Alt again under warranty and placed two new Batts with Orileys's Super Start AGMs at the same time and havent had any issues since. Red Tops must have been sitting on hot shelves before sale during summer that year.Several people had issues with RED TOPS/Optimus batts at that time.It was one hell of an expensive way to find out what the issue really was at that time. I used to believe in OPTIMUS Red Tops asthey have lasted very well in the past.I no longer buy them.Ive had very great luck with the AGM S.
