    meron na palang hotline ang amaron battery? that's very good news. may 24 hour and credit card capable payment system na din sila in place?

    almost a year ago i bought an amazon batt from powerstruck and it's still doing very well. btw, powerstruck delivered the battery to me to las pinas all the way from quezon city

    Just bought mine (Amaron Pro 3SM) at RBM, BF Homes, Parañaque for 6,700 php including the trade-in for my 22-month old Motolite Gold 3SM. Hoping to get a longer battery life out of Amaron.

    Update: I bought my hi life battery in BF Homes. 1SN P4500 less 300 trade in less 150 discount = P4050.

    Amaron is still cheaper compared to Motolite

    Changed my battery to a 2SM Amaron last week. Should have asked my mechanic where his supplier is located. Bought it at 5.2k. Haven't traded in the old battery since I'll trade it in another shop for 500php.

    Amaron Pro has higher price due to longer warranty and bigger charge capacity, even if same physical size as Hi-Life. The starting current for your engine is fixed so whichever battery you use does not matter.

    If the batteries don't get charged, the Amaron Pro will be able to start your engine more times than the Hi-Life. Let's say just for example, Pro will be able to start your engine 5 times while Hi-Life can start your engine 4 times.

    Similar lang yan sa rechargeable AA batteries. I have Eneloop (White) with 1900mAh charge and Eneloop Pro (Black) with 2550mAh charge. Same physical size, different capacities.

    The starting current for your engine is fixed so does not matter which brand you have. Brand new Motolite or brand new Amaron, both fully charged, pareho lang ng sipa yan.

    That's true, but if a battery was overrated and the rate falls below the starter's requirements, parang naghihingalo ang tunog nyan.

    My example is brand new Motolite and brand new Amaron, both fully charged, so very unlikely if not imposible maghingalo yan.

    Based on my personal experience:

    Motolite Gold in my ASX is more than 2 years old. One click start. Walang hingalo.

    Motolite Enduro in my Toyota Revo is more than 4 years old. One click start. Walang hingalo.

    How much more kung parehong brand new batteries ang pinagcompare mo?

    That's why it is recommended to check battery's voltage regularly. I have amaron on my suv and a motolite gold on the sedan. The amaron is about a year older than the motolite. Both batteries are checked regularly in the morning before startup. Both vehicles are utilized alternately. Using a battery tester, the amaron always yields full charge, while the motolite indicates half charge. So i need to weekly charge the motolite on the sedan.

    You can use Automatic, Smart Car Battery Chargers. Available in OLX and Facebook.

    Just charging time.

    Let's do simple Math. 1SMF battery with 60 Ah capacity.

    Assume battery is empty or 0% charge.10A charger will fully charge it in about 6 hours. 20A charger will fully charge it in about 3 hours.

    Assume battery has 90% charge and just need top up. 10A charger will fully charge it in about 36 minutes. 20A charger will fully charge it in about 18 minutes.
