I'm well satisfied with this master switch. In fact i ordered a second one as a spare and threw it in the glove box. My truck very seldom gets driven and it has a parasitic drain on the battery. When it sits for a long time the battery goes dead. I spent a lot of time tracing it out to no avail. The best i can figure out is the body module needs replaced and i don't feel like messing with the old truck till later. As a quick fix i installed one of these disconnect switch on the ground post of the battery and i can simply screw out the knob and disconnect the battery. It installed in minutes and its been holding up great. Its been on there for 6 months now and looks the same as it did new. One of these probably would come in handy for installing on a tractor or piece of equipment where they sit for a long time.

Review from V. Anonymous, Stoke-on-Trent

I Thought I Would Need To Replace My Old Optima D34/78 Since It's 10 Years Old. Yes 10 Years! However My Old Battery Still Took A Charge After Not Being On A Charger For Over 5 Months And Continues To Perform Like It Was New. I Can Used This Battery In Another Vehicle But I've Never Ever Gotten So Much Life From A Battery. Yes They Are Expensive But I've Replaced Standard Batteries After 3-4 Years And This Optima Is Going 10+ So It's Actually Cheaper In The Long Term. If You Can Keep Them On A Trickle Charger When Not In Regular Use That's One Of The Best Methods To Keeping Them Alive And Well For Years And Years.

Review from I. Shirley, Birmingham 

They Had The Wrong Images For This Batt But After I Contacted Them They Got It Fixed. For All The People Concerned About The Lack Of Warrantee Go Buy One From Optima And Try To Get It Replaced. They Gave Me The Runaround On My Last Optima That I Purchased From Them So Now I'll Save $100 By Purchasing Here. Yes $100 Not $50. You Have To Keep Your Eyes Open For The Deals. If For Some Reason This New Optima Takes A Crap Within A Year (which Is Highly Unlikely) I'm Not Out That Much $. But If It Lasts Like Others I Have I Will Get Minimum 5 Years Out Of It. For The Other Reviews Saying That They Contacted Optima And Optima Is Saying They Don't Know How Online Store Is Getting There Batteries. Ah Optima Sells Pallets Of Batteries That Are 6 Months Old And Older. So Optima Is Full Of It. I Worked At An The Warehouse So Ive See It.

"I Started Having Trouble With This Battery Two Months After Installing It. I Began Find That My Truck Would Not Start. At First I Thought It Was Because I Left My Ham Radio On Overnight. So I Charged It Back To 100 Percent With An External Agm Smart Charger (pulse Charge Pulse Charge Etc. ). I Don't Drive Every Day Because I Telecommute For My Job Or I'm Driving A Rental Car Out Of Town. Each Time I Left My Truck Sit For A Few Days It Would Not Start; I Had To Charge The Battery To Get My Truck Started. I Discovered That The Battery Would Lose 20 Percent Of Capacity During The Day Just Sitting Unused. Now A Few Months Later It Will Charge Only To 62 Percent. Online Store Just Ignores My Requests For Adjustment. I Have A Four-year-old Optima Battery That Continues To Function Well."

Purchased December 18 2015 Installer In My Jeep Lj In March. Drove Yesterday No Problems. Tried To Start This Am And Battery Was Dead. Charger Indicates Bad Cell And Will Not Take Charge. Bad News No Local Dealer Will Warranty Since Bought On Online Store.

Review from J. Glenda, Northern Territory

Are So Happy With The Optima Battery. Plus The Price Was Right! Couldn't Find One Even Close To What We Paid For It. Was Delivered On Time Without Any Problems. Charged It Up With Our Battery Tender Over Night And It Was Ready To Go! Really Glad It Won't Leak - All Sealed. That's Why I Bought It The 1st Time. This Is My 2nd One. Won't Buy Anything Else.

"If You Plan On Running Accessories A Top And Side Post Battery Is A Must. I Bought This To Accommodate My Ham Radios And And Stereo Amp. It Preforms Well. The Last Optima Lasted Me 12+ Years. Hope This One Will Last As Long. Would Love To Have One In All My Cars/trucks."

Great Battery. Installed This Same Battery In My Car In 2005 And It Just Started Going Away On Me In Jan 2016. Optima Batteries May Be A Slightly More Expensive Than Other Batteries But I Can't Recall Ever Having Another Brand Battery In A Daily Driver That I Got 10+ Years Out Of. I Had A Honda That Needed A New Battery About Every 3 Years And At The Time I Thought That Was Good.

Review from N. Hayward, North Carolina

Initial Impressions Are: Battery Came In A Dedicated Optima Box That Was Inside Another Larger Box W/ The Usual Shi**y Online Store Packaging. Battery Came Charged Only To 12. 5 Volts. Owners Manual That Came With Says To Charge These Fully If They Hit 12. 4 Or Below With A Target Of 12. 8 Volts When Fiully Charged. It Alsosays To "never Let Them Fall Below 12. 4 Volts When Storing " But Does Not Say Why. Also There Is No Date Of Manufacture No Little Stickers To Remove So You Can Remember The Install Date And A Little Round Sticker (with Red Writing That You Can Barely See On The "red Top" Portion) That Says "made In Mexico. " My Last Red-top This Is Replacing Is 11 Years Old And Was Flawless But Is Finally Giving Out. I Will Update This If The Battery Fails Early Or Years From Now When It Does To Compare With My Last One That Was Made Here In America!

Optima Batteries 8004-003 34/78 Redtop Starting Battery (8004003) Review

Review from K. Bertie, Lorraine 

Most Awesome Car Battery Ever. Anyone That Has Ever Owned An Optima Knows This All Too Well. My Previous Red Top Last 7 Years And 4 Alternators. Yeah I Know As For The Alternators: 1 Drowned No Clue Why Its That Low On The Engine. The Others Were Napa Alternators (with Lifetime Replacement); 1 Sent Bad Codes To Computer And The Other 2 Croaked. And Having An Alternator Go Out That Red Top Got Me Home Every Time. So If You Are Concerned About Buying An Item Like This On Online Store Don't Be. I Buy Lots Of Things On Online Store And I Still Talked To A Rep On Online Store For A Long Time Making Sure This Was A New Item Full Warranty Included. Locally The Best I Could Find Price Was $201; Online Store Shattered That Price. Optima Warranties Their Battery For 36 Months And If Anything Happens In That Time Period Find A Local Optima Supplier And Take It To Them. Showing Date Of Purchase It's About The Battery Not Where You Got It. Online Store Takes Care Of You For The First 30 Days So I Was Convinced. And With Prime I Ordered It Sunday Afternoon And Had It In My Jeep Tuesday Night!

"I Can't Say Enough Good Things About Optima Batteries. So I'll Try To Be Brief. This Is My 3rd Red Top 34/78 In 16 Years. I Run Them In My 66 Mustang Gt Fastback. The Only Reason My Previous Optima Died Was Because I Didn't Start The Car For A Ridiculously Long Time. However The Red Tops Have Been So Dependable For Me. The Car Is A Retro Mod Extremely High Performance Shelby Equipped 525 Hp 347 Stroker Fully Restored Frame Off. I Do Not Drive Her Very Often. I Should Trickle Charge. But With The Red Tops I've Just Never Had To. Months At A Time With No Start And She Fires Right Up. But After 4 Years With A 6 Month Work Related Trip Out Of Town The Car Just Sat. I Knew It Was Not A Good Idea To Leave Her That Long Without A Trickle But It Just Happened That Way. So I Finally Had To Buy This New One. I'll Never Use Anything Else. I Have The Billet Casing. It Looks Great. It's A Strong Battery For A Very Strong Car. Highly Recommend. And Great Price On Online Store Too."

Great Battery. I Used The Optima Website To Make Sure It Was The Right Battery For My 1991 Extended Cab 4x4 Gmc Pickup With 5. 7l Engine. It Was One Of The Ones That Was Supposed To Fit. When It Came It Was Easy To Install In My Truck. Fit Great. It Comes With Several External Brackets To Use To Secure The Battery To Your Vehicle And One Fit My Truck Perfectly. I Am No Mechanic. But This Was Very Easy To Install With A Couple Of Basic Tools. It Starts The Truck Very Well In Cold Weather This Winter And Appears To Be A Premium Quality Battery. I Checked Online And Made Some Calls To Local Stores And The Same Battery At The Local Auto Parts Store Was $70 More (and With High Taxes On Top Of That) So This Premium Battery Came In At About The Same As The Lowest Price "cut-rate" Batteries Available Locally. Ordered And Had It In Hand 2 Days Later With No Running Around To Local Stores.

U. Hurst, Oregon

I Have Had My Truck Since 2003 And I Put The Optima Red Top In There In 2006 And It Still Works Like A Champ And Its 2016. Not To Mention I Have Always Had 2 Solo L7 Kickers 15''s Running Off That Battery Alone. Im Not Sure How Long The Average Battery Last Because All I Have Ever Had Is Optima But Im Sure This Last 2-3x As Long As A Regular Battery. I Would Give This 6 Stars If I Could.

Review from I. Whiteman, Rotherham

I Was Really Excited About This Product As I Constantly Have To Slip The Clamp From The Battery Post Every Time I Want To Start My Truck Since There's A Mystery Draw On It. I Had Read A Couple Of People Said The Clamp Was Too Big For The Post Even After Cranking On The Wrench A Lot. So I Guess I'm Going To Have To Buy Some Of Those Clamps So That It Shims On Properly But What I Don't Understand Is Why They Simply Don't Make That Post A Little Bit Bigger So That There's No Issue With The Clamp Being Too Big It Seems Like The Logical Thing Would Be To Make It A Little Bit On The Bigger Side Since There's A Much Wider Lattitude On Making The Clamp Bigger Than Smaller. So I Haven't Tested It To See If It Works But I Anticipate That It Will. I'll Update To 3 Stars When The Caps Get Here And I Can See That It Works.

Top Post Battery Master Disconnect Switch (Gama Electronics) Review

Review from D. Audrey, Sachsen 

The Design Seems Rugged Enough And Simple Enough To Last A Long Time. I Ordered One Of These For A Vehicle I Rarely Use. It Had Become Bothersome To Connect And Disconnect The Battery Every Time I Used The Vehicle. I Was So Happy With It I Bought Another One For My Other Rarely-used Vehicle And Two More For Friends. A Disconnected Battery Will Need Charging Far Less Frequently Than One That Is Continuously Connected On Most Vehicles. Waiting Until A Battery Seems Low Before Charging It Will Damage The Battery And Shorten Its Life. So Your Best Bet For Rarely-used Vehicles Is To Buy A Good-quality Battery Switch Like This One And Connect The Battery Before Use And Disconnect It Afterwards. A Disconnected Battery Should Be Connected To A High-quality Automatic Battery Charger (like The Genius Battery Chargers) Occasionally To Ensure It Remains Topped Off. I Put Mine On A Genius Charger For At Least 24 Hours Once Or Twice A Month To Prevent And/or Mitigate Sulfation Damage. If You Don't Want To Disconnect Your Battery After Parking Your Vehicle You'll Need To Keep A Fully Automatic Battery Maintainer Plugged Into It. I Prefer To Have One Good Battery Charger/maintainer And A Switch Like This One On Each Vehicle. Lead Acid Batteries Are Intended To Be Kept Fully Charged And They'll Last Longest If Treated That Way.

"It Works But Wish It Came With The Bolt To Hook The Terminal Rings On. Also The Knob Doesn't Have A Very Positive Feel In The On/off Position Just "turn The Knob (just A Screw) A 1/4 Turn To Disconnect". If Disconnected While Under Load It Would Cause Arching Which Will Eventually Lead To Connection Degradation."

This Will Not Work Out-of-the-box With A Honda Because The Terminal Post Is Too Small To Fit The Honda Battery Cable - You Can't Tighten The Cable Lug Tight Enough To Fit. I Had To Cut My Oem Battery Cable And Install A New Connection Lug. The Fitting For The Battery Post Is Ok But Whoever Designed And Made This Obviously Did Not Measure It Up Correctly. Only Buy It If You Are Willing To Spend Time And Money Modifying Your Oem Battery Cable. Will Not Recommend Or Buy Again.

S. Alberta, Peterborough

I Bought Two Of These For My Rv So I Would Be Able To Disable The Batteries When In Temporary Storage. Work Great! Just A Twist Of The Knob And Power Is Cut From The Batteries So No Drainage No Fuss No Muss. Another Twist And The Batteries Are Connected Again Just As Easily. Great Product.

The F.A.Q. for Side Post Battery Master Disconnect Switch (Gama Electronics)

My racing buell m2 had a constant drain problem. Honestly, i don't have the time or the energy to track it down. So i ruined a number of agm hd batteries and figured wtf! well this was the solution. I was truly grasping at straws when i purchased this item. I assumed it would be poorly made, sloppy fit, larger than the pictured represented. This is a great product. It fit perfectly on the negative terminal and snugly. The supplied bolt has a tight fit and completed the ground with no wiggle. This fits up into the battery area on my buell which is a tube frame. I have checked it multiple times with the ignition on to verify that is has cut all power to the bike. I have not yet completely unscrewed it as a theft deterrent but will eventually. The best part is the design. What you can't see from the photo is the notch out in the back which allows it to clear the recessed terminal wall. Give it a try you will like it!

A number of questions have been asked here.

Q&A

(0) Question: i have read reviews where some users place the switch on the negative terminal while others specify the positive side. which side is correct?

(1) Question: is there suppose to be a conductive washer with it, to take up the gap between the negative cable and the switch/

(2) Question: is there suppose to be a conductive washer with it, to take up the gap between the negative cable and the switch?

(3) Question: will it fit a napa battery ?

(4) Question: will this work on a polaris quad

(5) Question: will this work with a battery with terminals on top rather on the sidelines?

(6) Question: is this the same brittle pot metal that other switches on online store are made of? others have awful reviews unlike this one so fingers crossed.

(7) Question: i wonder if this will work on a 36 volt electric golf cart?

(8) Question: could you use 2 of these - one on each terminal - and hookup battery tender then? txs

(9) Question: will you lose the radio presets??

(note) Question: where/how to get Gama Electronics (manufacturer's brand) accessories & similiar Gama Electronics's products

Best side post battery master disconnect switch (gama electronics) in review

Bought this to use on our rv. The chassis battery under the hood is only charged by the engine, not the on-board battery charger that will maintain the "house" battery when plugged in. After a couple of weeks, the vehicles computer, clock, etc will drain the chassis battery causing a no-start condition. This disconnect makes it very easy to unhook the battery and prevent a discharge. . Installation took a 9/16 wrench (for the supplied bolt) and a 5/16 for the side-terminal battery (gm battery leads). Initially i installed it with the supplied washer under the supplied bolt, which attaches to the battery. This left some movement in the cable end though - the factory 'bolt' bottoms out and wasn't making proper contact with the disconnect switch. I moved the washer to be under the factory cable, and now both sides tighten down properly. When attached correctly, you should not be able to move the cable or the body of the disconnect switch. When the disconnect wheel is loosened, some movement between the halves of the disconnect body is normal. . Works great!

B. Bullock, Kirklees says

This is awesome! i have an older chevrolet blazer and something is constantly draining the battery as it sits overnight, with just a quarter twist counterclockwise the battery is disconnected and in the morning i turn it a quarter turn clockwise and my battery is back. Of course this is not a permanent fix to my problem but it buys me time to figure out what is draining my battery without having the daily headaches of jump starting my vehicle.

G. Matherly, Australian Capital Territory

For those that need instructions from cradle to grave this doesn't have it. I have a 1990 chevy k2500 with a slow battery discharge that i have never been able to find plus it sits for weeks since i seldom use it. The instructions for the install were accurate for me but i can see how some may get it wrong, cross-thread it or just call it junk. When you receive it there's a bolt & washer screwed into the threaded end. However, that's not where they belong and there's nothing in the package to tell you. So if you're not intuitive, or in a rush, you can easily start the install wrong. You need to remove the bolt & washer because they go in the other hole. The one that's not threaded. The threaded hole you just removed those items from is where the battery cable screws in with the bolt that held it in the battery. I'd suggest trying the screw in the battery by hand to see how deep the hole is and when it bottoms out. If the threaded hole on your battery is deep then attach the disconnect switch and, if not, use the washer between the switch and the battery to add some more spacing. I would suggest starting the battery cable by hand also because most of us can't cross thread anything enough to do damage by hand and once started use a wrench to tighten it down. If the bolt that comes with the switch fits your battery then, by default, your battery cable will fit the threaded end. If i have insulted anyone's intelligence on this please don't be offended because it seems some of the reviewers have tried to install this item without switching the bolt to the other hole. . This has also cured my battery drain issue and had i installed this earlier i would not have had to purchase a new battery. Once a battery drains down to the point where it won't start your vehicle, or barely turn it over, better start looking for a new battery.

I added this little gem to my embarrassing beater truck that has a short somewhere which slowly drains the battery as it sits unused. Just be sure to move the bolt from the threaded end into the non-threaded end! it's shipped that way to secure the bolt! it installed in just a couple minutes and fixed (well, ok, masked) my issue (since i don't care where the short is and just needed the thing to run when i need it to run). . Since installing it, my jalopy hasn't failed to start due to a dead battery for short jaunts to the hardware/lumber stores or the landfill. I just pop the hood, turn the knob to reconnect it, crank it up and go. My husband won't even wave goodbye while i'm driving it away so he doesn't have to acknowledge he knows anyone who'd own such a piece of junk. I honk and wave anyway. Thanks, gama electronics!

Installed on a gmc conversion van with an unknown battery drain. The van wasn't driven much and the battery would be dead within 3-4 days. No problem now. Simply disconnect the battery if the van isn't going to be driven for a couple of days, reconnect when needed. Quality product with easy installation.

Love this. I always disconnect our motorhome house and main batteries when i put our motorhome in storage. It was a pain having to disconnect cables every time while putting the mh in storage or run a/c etc each month while in storage. I got two (2) of these and now i can disconnect my batteries in a few seconds instead of several minutes. Easy to install and fit on both my battery types (main battery has side ternmerials and house batteries have top terminals). Only need one for the 2 house batteries if connected in series. Connect to neg cable. Picture below is my main battery also showing the flip type disconnect in my hand which i also could use but liked this better. Will take a couple of times to determine how many turns it takes to disconnect

Troubleshooting my buick required disconnecting negative battery cable from time to time. It was hard to get. To, so this saved a lot of trouble. It takes a little more than a quarter turn to completely disconnect. Some. Have given improper directions on usage of this device. The bolt is for the threaded hole and is used to. Attach your battery cable to this device. The threads on this included bolt are not the same as the threads. In your battery. The shoulder on the included bolt is the same diameter as the shoulder on the original. Battery bolt and will fit down in the recess of your battery cable. The only problem is, you will need to. Take a utility knife to carve away the plastic covering on the battery cable in order to get a socket on the. Bolt head and tighten the battery cable to the disconnect switch. You will most likely need to get a longer. Metric bolt to attach this device onto the battery. Your old battery bolt will not be used, but save it just. In case you remove this disconnect switch. If you're wondering, for a typical automotive battery, the longer. Bolt needed for your battery has a thread size of 10mm x 1. 5. Measure the depth/length in your battery to get the bolt length needed. Don't force the bolt to tighten the switch though. Either cut or shim the bolt. To get the final result if it's still too long. They don't make perfectly sized bolts to incorporate this. Device into your setup.

Used this on an old pickup that has the electric break package for pulling trailers with electric break activation. When the truck sits too long without being used, the led's on the breaking mechanism slowly drain the battery over a few months if the truck is not used. Since i installed this, the battery has not gotten low again. Works great. I would recommend this low-tech solution to the problem of a battery drain on your vehicle.

Works fantastic on my 2003 avalanche. Had a phantom battery drain, after a few days of not driving, it wouldn't crank due to dead battery. Installed this device in minutes, problem of dead battery solved!

Do this simple test to possibly save yourself some time & frustration when installing this switch: take a standard 3/8"-16 nut and attempt to thread it onto your battery terminal bolt. If it won't go, you may need to purchase a replacement bolt. As i discovered last night, they are not all the same. The oem bolts from my 1996 astro van would not thread into this switch (or into a 3/8" nut). I suspect this may be the root cause of some other reviewers problems, but i have no idea if this is isolated to my year/model, or if it was more widespread. After changing my terminal bolts to the proper thread (i took a nut to the store to verify them), the switch bolted on as per the instructions. The included bolt goes in the other hole than the one they shipped it in, but that's evident by the instructions as well. As for the switch itself, it seems to work okay but only time will tell.

I had a battery drain problem in my car and the only workaround was to unbolt the negative terminal when i parked the care overnight. It was getting really annoying so i purchased this switch. It's a little counter-intuitive to install, but i read the comments so i was prepared a little bit. You will need to unbolt the included bolt and put it through the not threaded hole to the battery terminal. The threaded hole goes to your battery cable connector and you tighten the existing bolt to the threaded hole. It works great, you just need to make sure there is enough distance between the knob and the brass when you unscrew it to disconnect the battery because the 2 brass pieces are not holding together too well when the knob is not tightened. I found and fixed the drain problem, but i still keep the switch on because it's very convenient to disconnect when i have to work on the car. I hope this helps somebody.

Worked good as a disconnect while car was parked for a week. Even the wife could work it. Only complaint, the side mount bolt that screws into the battery could be 1/4inch longer. I'll probably change it for a longer bolt as the one provided is only being held on my gmc battery by a couple of threads.
