  • VIC GROUP BUY: Optima Battery

    I have been given the opportunity to offer some very good prices on Optima batteries.

    The whole range is available so just PM me for prices on the odd models.

    The most popular model is the Yellow Top D34, 750cca and 55ah.


    Usually RRP is about $400

    For VW peeps $295 posted.

    Most models like the D34 come with a 3 year warranty.

    I'm assuming that most people know the benefits of these batteries but for those who don't I'll sum it up:
    Deep cycle - allows you to 'abuse' it a bit more than your usual battery. For example you can leave it for a lot longer without charging or tuning on the car. I've left it in my mk1 for more than 6 months and it still holds 12.6v.

    You can discharge i to very low levels and still recover it. Normal batteries don't like this, they will no longer hold full capacity after only a few times of running them flat.

    Being completely sealed allows you to mount it however you like, upside down if you want, with no problems you also don't need a battery box in your boot if you want to relocate it. Its also able to take 15 times the vibration of a normal battery.

    The D34 has a 55ah capacity, a normal car battery has about 40ah and is slightly bigger.

    More info can be found on the optima battery website. AGM Battery & Deep Cycle Power Batteries - Optima Batteries

          Bump for top product. I used an Optima D31 (Larger version) in my old SPL Car. (Competition Stereo) I bought the battery 2nd hand when it was 12 months old. Abused it quite badly (ran it flat several times) and sold it another 18months later still working perfectly.

          If i had a need for a new battery I would definately buy one of these.

            Thanks mate. I run a large-ish sterio (140db) out of the mk1 on one of these and it takes it a lot better than a standard battery. The previous battery would drop bellow 12v with the volume cranked, you could prity much watch the needle drop with heavy bass notes.
            The optima will drop to 12v and hold for a good 20min before moving slight off the 12v mark.

            If anyone is keen I can still place orders.
            All sizes and models are available, you just have to ask.
