Thanks Bernd,
Here is what I found
-The 800U and 800S 12-volt models deliver 800CCA at 0°F
What about CA ratings? I know you have said 1000CCA, but I cannot find that
within their website about cranking amps nor cold cranking amps, Bernd.
Nothing else is stated anywhere in that website. I have found on other
websites, companies which sell Optimas, that the Blue Top Marine only
delivers 800CCA also. . Why did you also decide on their Marine battery over
their SLI(starter, lighting, ignition) red top batteries?
OK wait a minute, I just found info for the Blue Top battery, at:
http://www.marinebatteries.com/optima_blue.html
This website states the 1000M Blue Top Optima delivers 1000CA and 800CCA.
Bernd, are you sure yours has 1000CCA????
Also at: http://www.marinebatteries.com/optima_red.html
It states that the 800U/800S(Red Top) both deliver 1000CA and 800CCA.
Once again, why doesnt Optima provide info for their batteries on their
website? If they do, please tell me where!
