High-performance starter batteries must deliver reliable cranking power under demanding conditions, particularly in tuned, modified, and performance-oriented vehicles where electrical loads and engine bay temperatures exceed standard thresholds. The Optima Red Top 8004-250 is an absorbed glass mat starter battery engineered specifically for these applications, providing consistent, high-output starting performance across a broad range of operating environments.
Optima's proprietary Spiral Cell AGM construction binds the electrolyte within tightly wound glass mat separators, eliminating free acid and producing a sealed, maintenance-free unit. This design delivers a stable internal resistance, enabling the 8004-250 to sustain the 815A cold cranking output required by high-compression and forced-induction engines. The technology also supports start-stop functionality – verify compatibility with the product label prior to fitment.
The battery measures 254mm (L) × 175mm (W) × 200mm (H including terminal) and weighs 15.7kg. It operates at 12V with a 50Ah capacity (C20) and uses a top-positive, side-negative terminal arrangement (polarity 1, terminal type 1 + SIDE). Hold-down type is B00.
