The yellow top NEVER lived up to its claims
The yellow top is not the blue top nor the red top
The yellow top was the costliest and made ridiculous claims about how cyclable it was. Sailors had me running in Mexico from sailboat to sailboat. The issue was about capacity loss after six months of ownership.
If you think even the best AGM battery has a capacity loss after sub-par charging minimum amperage and incomplete recharge.
The Optima is king of the world. By far.
A daily driver yellow top is like hiring Charles Atlas to haul groceries. It had BETTER last as long as your battery has. The world's champion failure was a Delco Voyager. Half of them on the Costo shelves already had RED eyes

AFAIC a great heads up for brand new technology products. It needs consumer proofing to learn it's quirks. The Optima battery is a perfect example. When released upon the public 99% of Optima claims went up in smoke. I would recommend patience then look for a thousand five star reviews. I call this THE OXY-CLEAN REALITY. BS claims adjustment. Like STP, the JC Penny battery, miracle teflon coatings.

Just another Battleborn / Relion nock off? No link and I'm too lazy to googel.
edit: I did a google for lion safari and this was the result, don't see any mention of batteries:

I'm sure price will eventually come down.
