    sa ctek charger it takes around 1 hour or more to fully charge the battery of my cars parked.. so yung 10 - 15 mins na charging baka hindi enough yan to bring back the charge lost in starting the car

    a basic, cheap charger costs less than 2K. i use mine for less than 20 minutes only, to charge the battery so's i can start the car. my next destination would be the battery store. it's convenient for me, as the store is near the workplace.

    for MT cars na hindi diesel,
    "push start" kings, that's us.
    Hmmm.... just in case my car wont start due to battery deterioration I can use my other vehicle battery to jump start it anyway.

    You may have an accessory that's draining it.

    FLA batteries themselves self-discharge, but it does so only at a significantly low rate of 4-6% per month.

    personally for me, i prefer the charger method.
    i suppose, "whatever works".

    besides, i can use the charger to trickle charge the battery. some folks believe this significantly increases battery longevity.

    Had a very good experience with Bess-J Enterprises.

    The 3-year-old Panasonic in our XV died this morning just when I was leaving the kids' school after picking up supplies. Googled a store and Bess-J was one of the first to come up. Called and gave them my details. The rider arrived in 30 mins with complete tools including a backup battery to keep the electronics alive. The rider also wire brushed the terminals and cleaned the battery tray. Install was done in less than 10 mins.

    1SM 24months Php6,100. Traded in the Panasonic for 200 so total came out Php5,900.

    Look into ENERGIZER automotive batts. They're currently pricing EFBs very close to Amaron's regular flooded & their warranty is up there. Regular Flooded 18 months, 21 months for EFB and 24 months for AGM. Available in DIN, too.
    ENERGIZER NCR Delivery Hotline:
    (02) 880-80-888
    Owners of premium Euros, Start/Stop vehicles, & everyday cars.....Check them out!

    Why opt for such stores when you know someone who sells Energizer car batteries? I know two people.

    i motolite. they're reliably just a phone call away. delivery and installation within an hour, whether it be in the residence, in the office, or in the mall parking.
