Optima Red Top Starter Battery - 8001-287 12V 50Ah - RTC4.2, 2 Years Warranty

Product Number: RTC4.2

Starting reliability in demanding applications depends on a battery capable of delivering sustained high current without voltage drop or premature failure. The Optima Red Top 8001-287 is a 12V 50Ah AGM starter battery engineered specifically for vehicles where conventional flooded batteries are inadequate, including tuned and modified street cars, high-performance road vehicles, and generator applications where compact footprint matters. Optima's Spiral cell AGM technology constructs each cell from two pure lead plates wound into a tight cylindrical spiral, separated by an absorbed glass mat. This configuration eliminates free electrolyte, increases plate surface area, and produces an exceptionally rigid internal structure resistant to vibration damage. The result is a cold cranking output of 815A (EN), consistent starting performance across a wide temperature range, and a battery that accepts charge more efficiently than conventional designs. The 8001-287 measures 254mm x- 175mm - 200mm (L x- W x- H) and weighs 18.5kg. It is fitted with SAE Post terminals, referenced as terminal type 1, with standard positive polarity (type 2). The hold-down configuration is B00. This product group is classified as 3100 within the Optima range.
