Does anyone know how much these weight in comparison to a normal lead plate battery? Also does anyone know what their lifespan, ca, and cca are in comparison?

Thanks.

I have one in every vehicle I own, never had a problem, weight is about the same as a normal lead acid battery

optima is the best battery you can get imo

had a friend run his for something like 8 yrs and its still running strong

optima used to be the best. but they changed something about 3yrs ago. the "new" optima only last about 2 maybe 3 years. they used to be all anyone would put ion their off road rigs.(back when i was rock crawling and stuff.) but now everyone says they suck. short out and dont keep a charge. i have an older one in my truck and its still kickin like new. there are some other batt. companies that have the same tech now. and from what i hear they are better than the new style optimas.

will...
