Thanks for choosing OPTIMA! While we always recommend using batteries that are identical in age, size and type in dual battery applications, our REDTOP batteries are SLI (starting/lighting/ignition) batteries, that are not designed or warrantied for deep-cycle use, which would include vehicles with winches, refrigerators and other deep-cycle accessories. In those applications, we would always recommend using YELLOWTOP batteries, which are designed & warrantied for deep-cycle use.
Thanks so much for commenting and giving me some direct knowledge on this, I really appreciate it. I will make sure to pass this knowledge on to anyone else I see that may be making the same mistake. I will definitely be putting YELLOWTOP batteries on the list for upgrades to ensure I stay in compliance. Thanks again for commenting and helping me understand the application. I look forward to using OPTIMA now and in the future!! I will make a revision video once I can afford to get the the batteries and get them installed, for now Ill throw a disclaimer in my description.
I did install the MLC-6. It has been great so far and the only thing about it is finding something to control with all the switches. Thanks for watching!!
William, thanks for watching and commenting. The JK has been on the front to get to some adventure videos, some camping, and to take on some trips i've had planned for this summer, but the YJ is making its return in a couple weeks. Just doing this myself and having a full time job kinda drags things out a bit for you guys im sure, but rest assured the YJ is coming back and I have made some good progress. (Engine is in now) You should be pleased with other progress too. Thanks for watching and stay tuned!!!
Small Time Motorsports Awesome, just wanted to check in. I haven’t seen most of your jk vids so I’ll have to go check them out! I totally understand how a project can get drawn out. Good luck!

Appreciate the info. Saved me from buying the wrong one and making an expensive mistake.
Did you end up installing a ML6?

LOL the air filter is still clean because you looked at the clean side and not the dirty side
The camera never lies, BUSTED. Lol. Thanks for watching and commenting, and of course catching my flubs.
Hey man, any news on the yj build?

Would also like to see an update video on the YJ.
What if someone prefers Odyssey Batteries? Heck, I prefer “American made” when possible. Optima’s are made in Mexico. Urg! #America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
