I like the way that the old Lucas batteries looks, but I also like the fact that my battery tray has no rust. So I am thinking of installing an Optima gel cell battery in to my freshly painted Bugeye

I put one in my Bugeye about 3 months ago, and it seems fine. The terminals and the holddown have not corroded like they did with a regular battery. I bought the NAPA look-a-like not the Optima. The

I have one in my Bugeye and have had one In my 911 for over 5 years. If you know 911's then you know that battery corrosion is always a problem. The Optima has not one spot of corrosion after 5 untou

If you're asking about the brand Optima, I can't help you. But, if you are asking about gel cell batteries, I can. A couple of years ago, I had a tank (yes, tank, as in M1A1 Abrams) that would never

The gel cells are great Mark, I've had one in a car since '94 and it's still going strong. It is in a daily driver however, I don't know how it would do in a once a week/month car. They work well fo

Gel Cells are worth the extra money. They are sealed. The terminals never corrode, the don't leak acid-- I suspect that they would not leak much acid even if the case cracked. I've had one in my Midg

It must be jelly, cause jam don't shake like that! It may be jellified, but it is still nasty stuff I assure you. An optima sealed battery I had on the land cruiser cracked against the battery hold d

You know, I've always wondered how you recharge an Optima battery. What if the alternator fails and the battery gets run down? If there's no vent, is it safe to charge it? -JohnR 72 midget == Mark Th
