[QUOTE="jruz, post: 901587, member: 16104"] The general difference is "starting" vs. "deep cycle". The deep cycle batteries are dual-purpose, good for both. The starting batteries tend to not recover so well from a full discharge (also don't have as much reserve capacity). Look for an optima with a "D" in the model number. Blue is marine - the only difference I could find is that it has thumb-screw accessory posts (they do have a non "D" model, so keep an eye out). Yellow is typically commercial or deep-cycle automotive, as far as I've seen they all have a "D" in the model number. [/QUOTE]
