OPTIMA 35 REDTOP Battery for BMWs - 31.7 LBS (bimmerworld.com)


I made my own bracket and it fits perfectly. 31lbs and 720cca.

Looking for any designs out there, I have mine ugly rigged and would like to see if anyone could post their setups with the redtop?

Does the H6 fit securely in our stock battery tray?

[Radekxpl]

Antigravity can ship to Bahrain, H7/94R 60Ah good enough?

I have been running Antugravity Restart ATX-30 for past 4 years no problems https://ebay.us/6cYcJP. Can't beat the price and weight works really well and the restart feature is awesome to as well.

Optima Red Tops have treated me well too, not the ultimate in weight savings, but still a lot better than stock, and they last a really long time. And if you can’t put the car on a battery tender, they still last a month or two depending on climate.

I have a lithium iron battery - Deltran Battery Tender 480CCA battery - and it doesn't have the shipping or racing sanctioning org restrictions. My battery probably won't work for a car with all of the modules and accessories but maybe look for lithium iron batteries instead.

Hey brother, I'll try and have a look around and ask around. I'll update when I have something concrete lol

Again the problem is no one willing to ship he LIion Batteries to Bahrain. I'll have to ask Antigravity but then again im not paying those crazy high prices any way LOL

Ah, I missed that little detail. Those are really the only options?

Well yeah the only two Good options.

[K-Dawg]

Unfortunately none of those are available in Bahrain. Only the Optima and Excide.

Good luck and please do keep us posted!

Worst case, the Optima has been a solid choice in my car. IMO, the Yellow Top is overkill for most use cases (do you really need deep cycle capability in an M3?) so save a couple bucks and go with the Red.

Thank you! I'll check if they have the red tops too.

Agreed Brother. I'll Update when I have an answer from some of the suppliers I know.

Funny enough I was trying to find an address in Bahrain on Google maps so I could plug it into their site to see how much it would cost to ship it.

I totally get the hesitancy on the steep pricing of one of these. Dollar for dollar though, it's hard to beat the weight reduction of a lithium battery.
