Amaron battery

[tarzegetakizerd]

dr, did you read the article? It was said that it cannot be due to a exploding battery

Looking at what is left of the car there could have been other "modifications" there, pink ba naman yung pintura, malamang hindi lang paint pinaltan dyan.

Buo pa pala yung plates nung baterya eh. yung plastic malamang matutunaw. pero kung pumutok/sumabog, dapat hindi mo na makita yung baterya as buo, diba?

Tsaka yung mga ibang comments, puro hearsay. Sounds like someone i know from here

Mayroon ba Police report or Fireman Report? no offense to the "Mechanic",

yespo.
i read the removed article before it was removed. it sported more pictures than the current link now. there, there was post-ers' talk as to whether the battery really exploded or not.
it's a bit different from the link here now. here, an auto authority commented in the link that it was probably caused by faulty wiring.

"i don't know the mechanism by which it happened."
what i was impressed at, was "ang bilis ng mga magkakahoy".

what i did suggest, was to look up forensic pictures of exploded car batteries (for comparison).

suspecting this and that, on the basis of color, is akin to the dis-credited bertillon system of olde...

but questions come to mind.
is the amaron really more prone to exploding?
or is amaron "the prefered brand" of some car fans who like to load lotsa electrical toys into their big toys?

Dapat siguro Kags ma ban ka muna ng 14days for spreading fake news, quarantine ka muna. Wala ka naman personal experience sa Amaron like Banat's unverified reports.

Ang problema lang sa Amaron ay mahal pero sulit ang quality usualy lampas sa warranty 2x or more compared sa other brands. Yung mga nagkakaproblema ay merong underlying issues sa sasakyan, parang SUA ang problema yung driver.

Gano kamahal ang amaron vs Motolite? Yung kinabit kasi sa amin ay (forgot the brand) 25% more expensive than Motolite,. So if 21 months si Motolite, dapat ito 26 month, going 24 na ito.

Edit: Emtrac pala ang brand

may possibility naman talaga lumobo yan battery.. at hindi lang sa amaron yan.. pwede manufacturing defect..

pero madalas talaga electrical wiring ang cause bakit nasisira or nag ka problem sa battery..

sa office namin dati may lumiyab na sasakyan..

sa battery nag start pero dahit yun sa converted yung sasakyan nya at wrong type of batter ang gamit..

tumatama pala yung positive pole sa hood

Car batteries DO explode. The acid/electrolyte itself isn't flammable.... what is flammable is the hydrogen gas that is being produced as a by-product of a lead-acid battery's chemical reaction.

Under the right conditions, subjecting a sufficient concentration of hydrogen+air to an ignition source, and it will go kaboom!

Hydrogen collects at the top of each cell compartment so when they ignite, the sudden increase in pressure cause the top of the battery to rupture. Those are typically the weakest points of the battery. Just do a google image search of exploding car batteries.

Just came in from banawe they are now strict they require faceshield good thing i have one in my car or else you cannot enter the store goggles is not enough and also bring quarantine pass.

May vent holes even the sealed and gel VRLA so yung hydrogen buildup should be crossed-out as cause of xplosion. Unless battery room confined sealed na usually may gas sensor. The pic shows an obvious highly modified car, most likely the cause was due to faulty electrical system or battery mounting.

Almost P1.5-2k difference ang Amaron sa generic. Yung Panasonic 18months lang warranty so i guess kahit cheaper by P2k eh 6mos off naman ang warranty.

Might it be inadequate vent design, then a short inside caused by low fluid level?

Yung sunog iba siguro sa explosion. Dami kasi mahilig magtap lang ng direkta sa battery, no fuse, thin wire tapos high load.

Mag wa one year nana amaron hi life ko, from amaron GO user 3 years 6 months lifespan, hindi ko pa na experience sumabog battery ko.

The warranty on mine will end in 10 days. It's still 100% SOH and I thought I'd give it some TLC.

PRECAUTIONS:
1. Wear safety glasses (I used glasses and a face shield)
2. Wear safety gloves
3. Use non-metallic prying tools (I used a plastic prying tool designed to open mobile devices)

I undid the caps and I can see that the electrolyte levels are still ok. Though the crud build-up after 21 months needed to come off.


I washed the caps with soap, thoroughly rinsed with water, and then dried them off completely with compressed air. FWIW, I believe the caps have a regulating valve inside. Nothing sophisticated but I think it just prevents gasses from venting out. It sort of works like your radiator cap and as a safety precaution, it will/should start venting when a certain pressure is reached. I think that dirt build-up can clog or cause this vent to stick which could prevent gasses from escaping when it needs to.


I did my best to clean off most of the dirt under the caps using paper towels, careful not to let them fall into the filler holes. I then put the cap back on but not entirely inserted while I give it a maintenance charge for a few hours.

Tanong lang, if you are not going to use your car for 3 months, is it okay to just remove the negative terminal so as to conserve the energy in the battery? Tapos I plan on just recharging the battery at least once a month by a 15-20 minute charging then remove the negative terminal again.

Would this be okay without any repercussion to the car's electrical components?

Chinese nag sulat nyan, binili ko sa parañaque pit stop ata store nun, chinese yung nag kabit ng battery at nag sulat ng warranty, sya rin ata may ari ng battery store ? Every Wednesday lagi ko chinacharge amaron battery ko using ctek mxs 5.0 hindi naman sumabog.

the probably more intelligent choice would be to disconnect the battery and charge it until it's fully charged.
then, re-charge it periodically.
this should preserve battery longevity.

[EE100shiro]

The indicator showing green means battery is ok, and no refills (distilled water) required. Inside the indicator there's s small green ball that floats to indicate battery is fine. In case the indicator show silver/clear means battery needs charging or refills of distilled water

[Wh1stl3r]

I'd remove the whole battery then hook it up to the charger if I'm gonna be away for more than 2 weeks. If less than that I'd just remove the negative terminal right after charging. Ang ayaw ko lang yun settings marereset ulit.

Has anyone used one of those car memory savers?

Wouldn't this affect the electrical components of the car if you let the battery be disconnected from it for 3 months, Dr. D?
