So what brand of battery are you running?

Unknown member · Oct 23, 2005

The Supra was down for a month undergoing an engine swap. Got the engine in and everything and the car needed to be jumped in order for it to start. Left it charging for 20 minutes, then called it a night. Try to start it again, it clicks and all the interior lights die completely.

Decided to replace the battery, it was very raggedy looking so might as well! I ended up buying the Xtreme Power battery from Les Schwab. This thing is bigger than the Diehard that was in there before, but it fits absolutely perfect. So perfect that the tiedown isn't even needed.

And everybody else?

I use the yellow top Optima. It's kinda small for the tiedown so i don't use it and no problems yet.

Red top Optima. I put some cloth under it to push it up so the tiedown works.

i used to have a job at auto zone, we had a rep come in and talk about the batteries. he said that theres only a few makers of batteries & one is johnson control, who make the auto zone brand. Johnson control also make the batteries for interstate, diehard, and a bunch more. so its all basiclly the same battery that your buying just a diff sticker on the outside
