I bought the Queen from Bob Brown in 2012 and on the drive home to WY replaced the battery. The original battery was an OPTIMA Yellow Top and I replaced it with the same brand/model. After 4 years of re-charging on and average of every two weeks, the battery gave it up and I'm in the market for a new one.
We no longer take multi day trips in the X, drive it only on dry roads in the winter and most outings are under 6 hours. The battery has been charged about every two weeks as the clock seems to run it down to low to start the car.
I'm thinning that the OPTIMA Yellow Top is still a good choice for my conditions and was wondering if it would be better to disconnect the battery as opposed to charging and or a trickle charger? What say Ye?
