In fact the Optima is a DRY battery.
They are great for people with the BIG boomin' stereo's because of the fact
that they recharge real fast compared to a regular battery.
I've seen some people with up to 3 Optimas installed for the big amps.

[Re: [oletrucks] Optima Battery?]
I've an Optima in my '59. It's sealed, so I won't get a leak. In fact, I
believe that the electrolyte is a gel, so that the thing can get punctured,
still not leak, and may even operate. I know that the inherent deep cycle
capability is useful if you winch something or do a field weld with cables
and
coat hangers. I also know that the Optima does well if you forget to
disconnect the cable and let it sit in the truck for three, three-and-a-half
months. It started a low compression big-block as if it were run yesterday.
oletrucks is devoted to Chevy and GM trucks built between 1941 and 1959
