yellowtops are well overpriced. try looking for a northstar nsb75 or nsb90, a datasafe hx300 or somthing in the odyssey battery range.

Have a look at some of the stinger batteries and then compare to the like of odyssey and hawker. same cases, similar Ah and similar internal resistance. I got 2 Hawker Genesis batterys for £20 each which are the same as the Odyssey PC1200 (£150 each) and Stinger SP1000 (£300 each)

Excellent batteries with a nice low internal resistance. better value for money than an optima
