Just replaced my stock battery (1 year, 2 months old) with an Amaron 2SMF. I got it from Metrobat in Makati. The person I spoke with the night before (Max) was very helpful. He offered some suggestions why my battery was being drained after two days of not being used. He also said I could drop by Metrobat to have my battery checked.

So I went there the next morning and another guy (forgot his name) started "diagnosing" what my battery's problem was. After five minutes of testing, he said his hydrometer broke and couldn't test the water level. He also said my battery seemed OK, except that the voltage was constantly dropping.

To cut the story short, Metrobat couldn't tell me whether my old battery was fine or whether it was time to change it. The guy said the only way to find out was to disconnect the battery and wait for two days to check if there's a significant drain. I had checked my electrical system for parasitic drain and everything was normal based on my own tests (0.03A drain with everything off). Anyway, I decided to replace the stock battery with Amaron to avoid any more headaches and keep my sanity.

So the guy replaced it. In the process, he lost one of the clips of my air duct and I was forced to look for a replacement. I noticed the clip I had wasn't identical and I couldn't screw it in. I left it with him and soon after everything was in order. Or so I thought. I found out later that he had forced it in and it took 10 men to pry it off. But we're getting ahead of ourselves.

During the next four days, I noticed that my fuel consumption wasn't going above 4km/L. I suspected something wrong about my engine bay, and sure enough, I found out that my air duct wasn't completely seated because one of the metal hooks holding the Amaron battery in place had not been correctly installed and was jutting out, lifting the air duct and causing it to be slightly disconnected. I just fixed it myself. That was when I found out the clip holding the air duct onto the chassis had been forced in.

So if you're planning on getting an Amaron, I wouldn't recommend Metrobat. Find another dealer just to be on the safe side.

I just googled Amaron battery in the web and found out there are a lot of complain and dissatisfaction about this battery in India where the subject is made of, I'm planning to replace my battery within the month.

meron sir nagtanong ako sa jensan marketing dati eh nagtitinda din sila ng amaron.

[crazy_boy]

^2 ba nagbebenta doon? Isa lang nakita ko. Outlast lang meron sila

parang 3 sila nandun. ung malapit sa toyota jas yan ung jensan marketing ung 2 pa dealer ng outlast.

+1. Ano'ng mga complain? Planning to change my batt within the next few months.

Sa tsikot ba, sino ang may pinakamatagal nang gamit ang Amaron? Hehe. Any problems so far?

Si miko pinakamatagal hehe chiks kuha na tayo bukas haha nung first start ng Jimny kaninang umaga, 5.++ lang reading sa volt meter hehe nagseries ako ng 3SM hindi mastart parin for a couple of tries.

Haha may Pajero ka pala Ken. Yung FM ko kahit 6 weeks hindi nagamit, 1 click start parin.

Mukhang mahina na talaga charge nung sa Jimny.

Yes bro 97 local unit dati lage din ako nagtatanong syo sa pajero thread haha nalimot m na cguro buy ka na battery ? San ka kuha ? 3SM din ata sa pajero tama ba ? mmya explore ko baka tampo na sken kse di ko na sya gamit madalas

3sm sa Pajero. Dapat sa Jawe sa banawe ako bibili kanina kaso sarado. Meron din amaron sa BHK along Aurora rear Cubao. Dapat nagpunta na ako doon kanina, nawala sa isip ko na meron amaron doon.

2nd time nang na drain yung amaron ko...
first time completely na dead below 7 volts, nagloko kasi break pedal sensor, ayun magdamag naka ilaw preno...

2nd time 2 days ago, nasira diode ng turbo timer kaya nag parasitic drain, na drain uli battery, 9 volts natira, kahapon lang naayos turbo timer at charge uli battery....

both incidents ay nanghiram ako ng battery tapos nung nag start na pinalit ko yung amaron, so basically ver very quick charge, hahaha...

pag itong battery na ito tumagal ng more than two years saludo ako, dahil grabe yung parusa na inaabot...
dami accessories nakakabit, almost everyday usage, on-off scenario....

sir ano brand ng turbo timer mo and pano nakita na yun diode ang sira? interested just in case

[miko101130]

sir ano brand ng turbo timer mo and pano nakita na yun diode ang sira? interested just in case

comtec brand sir.. japan surplus, madalas naka-kabit sa mga nissan silvia..
model is: BETIME 125, full auto linear...

meh warp-up function (10min preset)
full auto time( calculates desired time based on usage)
manual ( min/sec selectable from 10sec to 10min)

i was able to determine na diode was the one that caused the parasitic drain( drained battery in just 2 hours), kasi i removed the BTN fuse sa fusebox. ayun nawala voltage drop, so inisa-isa ko lahat fuse sa kick panel, lahat wala consume ng wattage except one, yung sa ignition line, eh naka off naman engine, so silip ko sa ilalim nakita ko yung kinabit before na diode, sobrang init at halos di mahawakan at mapapaso ka, kaya sure na ako na yun sira, to confirm this, tinangal ko yung diode, let the car sit for 4 hours uli then started it.. walang drain na nangyari, eh diode lang tinangal ko from the previous set-up, kaya siya na for sure culprit.

nung unang install yung turbo timer, pinagawa ko sa electrician sa banawe...
ang problem is yung alarm ko na autopage, ay may doorlock open feature pag namatay engine.

pag off engine, mag start na countdown, lalabas ka na vehicle tapos lo-lock muna doors( alarm is armed), pag naubos na yung time sa turbo timer at nag off na engine, ma-sense ng alarm na nag off na ang ignition, mangyayari send siya signal sa door switch para bumukas.

para hindi bumukas door lock kahit naubos na countdown sa timer, there will be two approach...
1. put a diode sa ignition sense wire ng alarm
2. put two relays in tandem in order to basically cut the supply of the ignition sense wire of the alarm once turbo timer cuts supply of 12volts to the ignition line.

ang ginamit ng electrician before was the diode method.
pag meh diode it will only allow current to go/flow in just one side or one direction.parang check valve. para kahit mamatay ang ignition after countdown hindi ito ma-sense ni alarm.

ang problem diodes tend to die randomly without warning, pag nasira si diode chances are mag consume ng power kahit hindi dapat, kasi naka tap sa ignition line.

what i did was do the second option above ako na mismo ang gumawa ng wiring set-up. magulo mag wiring mga taga banawe eh. placed two relays in tandem to de-couple the supply of the ignition line where the alarm senses whether ignition is off or once the turbo timer starts its countdown...

lines tapped from OEm harness
12v constant supply
white thick wire ( ignition wire before the key switch)
ignition sense wire after key switch ( black with red stripe)

pag ganito no need ng diode, at hindi mag open ang door lock kahit matapos ang countdown at mag off ang engine.
kaya walang pwede masira ng mag drain ng power. ayoko na kasi maulit na ma-drain battery dahil sa sirang diode.

just got my amaron from Metrobatt. lumipat na pala sila to Kalayaan Ave.

1SNF 3,500 kuha ko.
