So I want a “set it and forget it” battery. They seem expensive though.
The optima yellowtop D51r is a high end lead-acid, costing a bit under $300. The other is an antigravity 30amp AG-51R-30-rs, costing a bit under a grand. Plus whatever a trickle charger fo LiFepo4 costs. Both charge off the alternator. An antigravity will outlast 4 yellowtops which makes it a better deal IF the car lasts long enough to use up 3 yellowtops. I’m not sure it will. Which do I get? Or do I want something even lower end and cheaper?
