Platium is Diehards version of the Optima so it has both side and top terminals for extra gagets and gizmos plus the power to handle it. I think it has a 10 yr warranty. 4 yr full replacement and 6 yr prorated.



I am shopping for a battery now, 100 mo. warranty, 4 years full replacement, the balance is prorated on the Diehard Platinum, 3 years full, 100 mo. on the Gold

YOU ARE 110% WRONG!

Sears Diehard battery (Odyssey Battery Re-Branded) Has side and Top Terminals so it is a group 34/78. It is a AGM (Absorbed Glass Matt) which is Solid Lead Plates with Fiberglass sponges that hold the acid in battery. Batteries out weigh and out perform Optimas...THAT IS WHY THEY ARE Guaranteed to last longer! 8 year guarantee in which the first 4 years fully replaceable and 4 years pro-rated. Start at $219.99 and go on sale some time for 179 or 189.

Sears Equivalent to the Optima is the Advanced Gold which guarantee matches an Optima Battery 6 year in which 3 years fully Replaceable and 3 years Prorated. DOES NOT come with top terminals only the sides for 78. IMO it is waste for the extra few bucks get more CCA, RC, top terminals so it is easier to jump and run accessories and better guarantee.

Diehard Gold which is your basic Lead Acid combo with an 8 year guarantee in which the first 3 years fully replaceable and 5 years prorated.

DieHard Silver 6 year guarantee in which the first 1 and Half Fully Replaceable and 4 and half prorated.

DieHard Gold and Silver batteries are Deka Re-brands and manufactured by East Penn.
