Here are some more information for Mini Racing Alternator:
The majority of vehicles will use a RedTop Optima battery with a strong 5 second starting burst for its primary function of starting a vehicles motor. Immediately after ignition the vehicles alternator will constantly monitor how much charge remains in the RedTop battery and whether or not to provide top up battery recharging power.
Examples of some vehicles which would use this particular battery would be heavy equipment, diesel powered, hot rods, RV and automotive.But what if my vehicle does not have an alternator or requires the use of higher electrical loads?
In this case it would be best to then use a YellowTop Optima battery as it will have a higher discharge cycle compared to the RedTop batteries. Thus making it suitable for drag/racing cars, electric autos, snowploughs, as well as many other aftermarket vehicle accessories such as GPS, chargers, fridges, winches, hydraulics, inverter systems and specialized audio/video installations which require greater than 250 watts more power above that of the vehicles original equipment spec.
I heard that the BlueTop Optima battery should be used for deep cycling applications. This is true for the light greyed BlueTop cases, however there is a distinct difference between the YellowTop and BlueTop deep cycle batteries in that the BlueTop deep cycle batteries have 2 sets of posts - automotive (SAE) and threaded, whilst the YellowTop batteries excluding model D31T only have SAE posts.
An added feature of the dual purpose light greyed BlueTop batteries is that they also have a very high cranking power which makes them suitable for starting applications as well. Examples of where this type of Optima battery is used are with trolling motors and marine/RV applications where excessive electrical energy is required.
It should be noted that if a marine/RV application requires only the use of the starting feature of a BlueTop battery then it would be best to use a BlueTop battery with a dark grey case as it has been specifically manufactured for this purpose alone.
Forget about all the primary colored Optima battery top details, just give me the facts?
Use dark gray casing batteries for starting applications only and light gray cased deep cycle batteries for dual purpose operations.
It is important to remember that a deep cycle application will usually result in discharging a battery between 60% and 70% of its capacity whereas a SLI (starting / lighting / ignition) battery is designed to push out maximum power for a short period discharging between 1% and 3%. It is therefore not advisable to use an SLI battery for deep cycling applications as its battery life will be shortened depending on how regularly it is deep cycled.

F1 Down, Plenty More Motor Sports to Go
The Formula One world championship season has ended for the season, leaving many Brits a little disappointed. Everything was looking good for racing prodigy Lewis Hamilton, who at the tender age of 22 looked as though he had the world title in the bag.
However, things weren't to be; in the final race in Brazil, it all went wrong for Hamilton who suffered from mechanical problems with his car and finished 8th in the race, meaning he was just beaten to being crowned the youngest ever F1 champion.
Hamilton's team, McLaren, have stated that they may appeal against the stewards' decision not to penalise Williams and BMW Sauber for alleged fuel irregularities, but despite this meaning that Hamilton would then be crowned champion, he has publicly stated that he does not want to win the title under such circumstances. He has announced that he wants to win the world championship on the racetrack, not in an appeal court, adding that such a situation would be detrimental to the sport of F1.
Even though the F1 season is over for another year, there are still plenty of world class motoring events to keep petrol heads happy; The World Rally Championship, the Karting World Championship and the European Drag racing championship amongst others.
And for those who wonder how motor sport could ever be seen as 'green', the FIA Alternatives Energies Cup is a growing competition that pits various green forms of alternative energy powered vehicles against each other, such as solar power and electrically powered automobiles. Hardened motor sport enthusiasts may miss the scream and smell of the petrol engine, but the Alternative Energies cup is helping to further renewable and less damaging forms of vehicular technology whilst at the same time providing some superb racing sport.
And don't forget the hundreds of local motor races that take place throughout the country at small club circuits every week. These may not carry the prestige of world cup events, but they can be just as entertaining and it's here that you'll find some of the most interesting classes of vehicles being pitted against each other; coaches, taxis, ambulances, tractors, minis - even sit-on lawn mowers, if it's got wheels and an engine, there's likely to be a club of enthusiasts that races them.
We all know that a massive part of the attraction of motor sports is the element of danger and the chance of a spectacular crash; and this is one area where local banger racing circuits can almost guarantee entertainment, as many local race days will end with a real crowd pleaser - the demolition derby. This is a 'last man stands' affair - enter all ye who dare, rev up your engines and then bump, crash, scrape and collide until only one car can still move. The perfect end to a day at the races.
