[QUOTE="SPL Blazer, post: 5727154, member: 587873"] A lot of people use a Redtop, I guess cause it's a little cheaper than a Yellow Top. I was talking to someone at Optima about their batteries and they don't recommend using a Redtop in a vehicle with larger aftermarket high current systems. The Redtop is designed as a starting battery to be used in race cars and similar applications. The Yellow Top is designed to discharge and recharge faster and more times than the Red top was designed for. They designed the Yellow Top for vehicles with higher current demands of aftermarket stereo systems and entertainment systems, unlike the Red Top which was designed for powerful starts in race vehicles. It's not like you can't use them, cause a lot of people do. It's just they aren't the best option for a bigger stereo system. This isn't just my opinion, this is what the makers of Optima Batteries will tell you, just as they have told me. [/QUOTE]
