I assume you're talking about the coach batteries? yellow tops aren't really a true deep cycle battery, and do NOT like being run down dead. In offroading, we have lots of experience with yellow & red tops, and an insider who did some work at the factory some years back found out the only difference in the 2 (red vs. yellow) was the warranty. Blue top optimas are their deep-cycle ones.
