What’s the difference between a YELLOWTOP and a red top Optima battery?

Are AGM batteries good for deep cycle?

AGM batteries have an 80% depth of discharge (DoD), which is better than the 50% DoD offered by a flooded cell battery. This makes the AGM battery well-suited to deep cycle applications.

Are OPTIMA batteries really worth it?
