I have no experience, but the BatteryMINDer website specifically mentions
the Optima.

But oddly enough, they also offer an Optima-specific model, so ???

Depends a great deal on what is wrong with it, IMO.  If it's sulfated, then
maybe a desulfator would work.  But if, for example, it's been overcharged
enough to vent electrolyte, then no.
