The last 'car' battery I had lasted less than 6 months
as my auxilary battery. It works fine as a primary
battery in my Jetta now. I've had the Optima for over
a year now and it will still run my portable Dometic
fridge for at least 7 hours after at least 20 cycles.
The 'car' battery would do it five or six cycles, then
it's performance would deteriorate rapidly to the
point where it would only work for an hour before
losing its charge completely.

For my application, the Optima is the best choice I
have found so far. The cost of the battery isn't the
issue, it's keeping the functionality of the
refrigerator.

Thanks,
