Optima Battery

Where's the cheapest place to get one? I know summit has it on-sale right now for $110, but I remember seeing it somewhere else last year for under $100. Any help would be great.

As far as I know 110 is about as cheap as you can get them.

If that is for the Full size 980 CA 800 CCA model, thats a good price, if thats shipped. Local single price on the full size Red is slighly higher @139.00. Havn't seen Auto/Advance have any sales on it.

There are like 7 different RedTops< the RedTop is what to get.

They make a smaller RedTop for imports I can get locally for 100-105. I think these are 1k CA.

FWIW sears autocenters carry them and they should match summits price or anyone else for that matter.

It is the lesser one, 720 cca red top. I guess I'll just spring the extra $10 for the 1050 cca red top w/ top & side posts.
