Battery life span

**umzzzzz** · April 3rd, 2006 07:52 PM

tanong para sa mga nakakaalam: gaano katagal sa inyo ang isang 1sm na motolite gold na battery? more than 2 years lang ba ang life span talaga nito? ganito kasi ang nakakabit sa sasakyan ng nanay ko. binili namin yun noong january 13, 2004. tapos, bigla na lang syang hindi umandar ngayon ngayon lang. mga 2 weeks hindi pinatakbo ang sasakyan. ok lang ba ang nangyari na hindi na sya nagredondo man lang? isang malaking TIA para sa inyong lahat! mwah!

depends on the condition of your electicals, lalo na alternator.

Was able to stretch my EG hatchback's first battery life to 4 years! Dun ako bumilib sa outlast brand.

Not sure lang kung okay pa rin outlast ngayon.

agree with PK. yung stock battery ko, simula nung nakuha ko sa casa nung late 2000, middle of last year lang ako nagpalit.

considering may minor sounds setup oto ko then.

brand was motolite maintenance free - 1SM. yung ibang mga kasama ko dito sa office, nagpalit na sila after 2 to 2.5 years. tapos walang ibang electrical modifications yung oto nila.

I agree with PK.

Like PK, I was able to stretch my Outlast battery to four years dun sa dati kong Sentra.

mahaba na nga ang 2 years eh..

kaya ung ibang manufacturers.. hanggang 1 year lang ang warranty.

para pag bumigay after a year.. wala na silang warranty expense..hehe

pero meron talagang batt na ginawa para sa long life span.. kaso mahal na un.

ahhhh ok...salamat gurus! akala ko kasi may sira na ang alternator ng sasakyan ni momi. pero tanong ko lang din...para saan ba yung maliit na peep hole sa maintenance free batteries? nakalagay kasi doon, something like acid level ek ek...naka indicate dun sa picture, kapag white daw yun, low ang acid level. kapag black, good daw. black naman yung nasisilip ko sa dead batt na yun. kung hindi maiindicate kung malapit na mamatay ang battery, bakit pa yun nilagay dun?

I think that's for purging or serve as relief for excess gas "Hydrogen". During battery in operation (Flowing of electricity) there's some chemical reactions inside the battery that produced Hydrogen.

Someone to correct me if I'm wrong

ok na ang two years. Pag ok lahat ang electrical system mo during the lifespan ng battery, pwede pa ma-extend. pero ako pag two years na battery ko bumibili na ko replacement.
