Hey guys, ever since I've owned my car, leaking battery acid has been a problem, (probably because I just buy the cheapest battery at Autozone). What brand do I need to buy to stop this problem? I've checked my alternator voltage and they're in tolerance, so that's not the problem. I just need a reputable brand where I won't have to clean that crap up anymore. Thanks!

whats the difference of red/yellow top... like red for starting and yellow for sound system, does the yellow top also prevent your lights from dimming when you put down the windows? haha if so thatd be awesome

But if you run 2 or more amps that exceeds 1000w, than I still would suggest a farad cap in your stereo setup (As so I was told). A red top, like you said, is mainly a starting battery or in other terms it's like a standard battery you buy at autoparts stores except it's leak proof. -------------------- ![]() |
