The Best Car Battery On The Market

The Best Car Battery On The Market

There are a lot of options when it comes time to change your battery. There are also a lot of factors to take into consideration. The last thing you want in this summer heat is to be stuck at home or work waiting for help to come because you ignored the warning signs of a dying battery. Hey, I've been there, as have most of us at CARSTAR Ideal Auto Body Littleton here in Littleton, CO. It happens. But when it comes time to replace you may want to take a moment and think about just how much faith you put in your battery and what you can expect to get from a top of the line one.

The main factors you want to look into are cold-cranking amps, reserve capacity, performance in extreme hot or cold weather, and the expected life of the battery. The cranking amps are a measure of power that can be transferred during startup, which is when you need it the most. Reserve capacity is the number of minutes a fully charged battery at 80°F will discharge 25 amps until the battery drops below 10.5 meaning how long you can operate without the recharging effect of the alternator. 

The battery we found to be the best balance of price and performance is the RedTop 34/78 by Optima. For just under $240 you can get a great value and amazing specs. It has a whopping 800 cold cranking amps with 100 minutes of reserve capacity. No maintenance is necessary as well and it's completely spill-proof. It's highly resistant to vibration which gives it a lot longer life than other models. It also operates well in extreme temperatures.

While it may not be the least expensive model available, the RedTop 34/78 gives great performance for a reasonable price. You'll certainly appreciate its quality when it reliably turns over after a hard day at work day after day.
