Not quite. The Odyssey is made by EnerSys, and has been for quite some time. Sears signed a contract about 5 years ago to have the DieHard Platinum made by, you guessed it.
EnerSys. Both have the same specs, however Sears offers a better warranty.
The production of Optima has been shut down in the US and are now made in Mexico.

My optimum Yellow Top "died" after just 3.5 years but perhaps there is hope. I have never maintained it. Perhaps I can just charge it as the article below suggests. Anyone out there with experience on restoring a flat battery this way? Maybe all the negative reviews on the optimum batts are uncalled for..hopefully

As far as autozone a warranty, good luck getting them to warranty out your battery if you don't have a recipe or, they always try to find any reason NOT to cover A warranty issue.

Optima batteries USED to be great and lasted for well over 10 years...however that is not the case now.they have cheapened the manufacturing process and have become just a overpriced piece of junk.

Lol so your rebelling because it died after there warranty life? You wouldn't believe how many people buy so called dead ones or expired ones and still get them to work and last a long time. They dont necessarily work like all other batteries. Ive seen many bought for around 50 bucks that last for a very long time.
