-optima yellow top is what i recommend
-the different colors of optimas are for different cold cranking amps, etc. i have the red one thats all you'll need but again it comes down to preference of colors red= automotive, yellow=slightly better automotive( i think ), blue=deep cycle marine batt. but can be used in cars. in my opinion optima is the way to go.
-14 lbs, will work fine in spring-fall.. Slow in cold winter conditions.. South of VA, this is great!
Oh yea, 70$
-You need to get Optima RED TOP Starter Application battery for your lude. DO NOT get the yellow top, because that is a deep cycler battery. It's not a preference of color, they are for different applications.
-they are different cca's..... (cold cranking amps) but if you must know it doesn;t make a difference...... i worked at a car audio shop for 3 years and many people came in and bought both red and yellow top batteries.... the fact is, the battery really isn't all that important, you want a good alternator such as one from ohio... or if you're lucky and good with a welding machine you can use one from a ambulance..... but thats a lil extreme..... thats for those guys pushing 8 12's or something ridiculous.... next you want good wiring..... the lower the guage the better.... and finally a capacitor..... this will prevent that annoying headlight dimming you see in cars with huge stereos without a good alternator.... much cheaper than buying a ohio generator also.... back to the battery... it doesn't matter...... but if you are running a mild to mid SPL (under 120 db's) stick with the red top...... the yellow will put too much stress on the voltage regulator, since you aren't drawing that much power, but getting alot extra from the battery....... so basically buy the red top....... its cheaper anyway
-check out
http://www.optimabatteries.com to find places that sell them. Any place that sells Interstate Batteries can get them, as they are the same company. My shop sells them, but I doubt that does u any good
