I bought the first Optima after reading a post you made. And a belated thanks to you for good information.

With the reserve power these batteries have, it's much easier on a starter in cold weather. Every battery I replace I buy the same size Optima for all. That way if I trade a truck,car or tractor in ,I'll keep the battery for something else.

For charging I use one of the new Vector chargers. The first Optima I bought wasn't charged. Like you said it takes a while. It's like filling a 55 gal. drum with a tea cup. Once it's fully charged it has plenty of power.

The last two I bought I got from Jegs. They were both charged out of the box.

Local vol. fire dept. has one truck that had two regular acid batteries in it. They used one yellow top now and it cranks better than two regular acid batteries.
