2021 Ford Bronco Battery
The QH6 ORANGETOP is the most expensive of the group, but it also has the longest warranty (five year, free replacement) and offers vastly superior cycle life to the YELLOWTOP options. It's also significantly lighter (21 pounds) than either YELLOWTOP, which is great if you're a drag racer. If your Bronco is your daily driver, the light weight will probably benefit you most when you lift it into the truck to install it.
ORANGETOPs do come with OPTIMA's CPR system, which automatically turns the battery off, if it is being deeply discharged, keeping enough energy in reserve to start your engine one more time to get you home safely. It also has Bluetooth connectivity, so you can turn the battery on and off from your phone, check voltage, cycles, temperature and other data.
OPTIMA also offers two YELLOWTOP AGM lead-acid batteries for the 2021 Ford Bronco, our DH6 YELLOWTOP and DH7 YELLOWTOP. They both come with three-year, free replacement warranties and the DH7 is the larger of the two and slightly more expensive. The DH7 will have more cranking amps and reserve capacity, but either battery will offer more than enough power in either regard for just about any Ford Bronco owner. Like the ORANGETOP, they can be used for both engine starting and deep cycle use, so if you have a winch, aftermarket stereo, car alarm or other accessories, these batteries can handle the extra load.
If you asked us our choice for most Ford Bronco owners, we'd probably recommend the DH7 YELLOWTOP. The larger size means shallower cycles, which can help extend battery lifespan. At just over 60 pounds, it's no lightweight, but you want a heavyweight contender when it comes to lead-acid batteries. More weight is generally associated with more robust materials (cast straps connecting the cells) and more active material in the battery.
Regardless of the battery you choose, the best thing you can do to maximize battery performance and lifespan is to keep the voltage properly maintained whenever possible (about 13.0V-13.2V for YELLOWTOPs & ~14.0V for ORANGETOPs). We're so confident this is true, if you purchase an OPTIMA battery from us and buy an OPTIMA D1200+ battery charger at the same time, we'll add an additional year of free replacement warrant coverage to your OPTIMA battery!
