Battery replacement - do you wait until it does not work?

[jjmd3_787]

It's actually very hard to know when your battery is going to die...
may it be maintenance-free or not.

Depende kasi sa gamit at klase ng baterya ang usapan dito. Pero to be sure, ang ginagawa ko ay nagdadala ako ng spare battery kapag lumampas na sa warranty period ang baterya ko.

For additional safety within the Metro, mag member ka sa AAP para may road assistance ka 24/7. I hope this helps...

May indicator naman naman kung malapit ng palitan battery. May manual naman. Kailangan lang intindihin.

For me, between 18 to 20 months, palit na kahit okay pa.... Mahirap kasi dahil A/T ang aming 2 sasakyan (at CVT pa ang isa.....).... Pero sa isa naming M/T na ride,- hintay lang ako ng telltale sign na mahina na ang baterya,- like pumalya ng isang click at 18 months na......

ano ba sabi sa manual ng battery?


speaking of waiting to die or wait for some signs, i just replaced my XTO's motolite excel with 2sm outlast diesel 24 months last saturday (4,000 with trade in). the white motolite excel served me well for the past 7 years and 4 months, finally showed signs of weakness during start up kaya wala nang check check palit agad.

very sulit, no time to get bosch at benavidez, mla next time na lang anyway bosch costs 3,600 but only with 12 mos warranty.

is there a reliable battery tester that uses the 12v/lighter outlet ?

ang napansin ko thru years of having a car... bigla na lang mapansin mo parang mahina yung lights..and 'hang' siya pag start parang nag isip pa and usually in the morning. if you experience na parang d na one click, palit na agad.

to prolong life ng battery ginagawa ko lang is to check the water kung kulang add lang.. basta above the plates.

question ko anong mas maganda add na water..yung battery solution or distilled water like wilkins.. puede ba mineral water lang?

kasi yung friend ko nakita ko mineral water add niya sabi niya puede daw kasi kaunti lang naman isang takip lang?

what do you think?

thanks

I use Shell's Battery water, which is "100% Distilled Water".

maganda din may dalang jumper cables. mas madali yun kaysa magtulak.

SOP to sa lahat ng tsikot namin, and also for rescue purposes (nagamit ko na when yung pajero ng chiks sa school namin pumalya yung battery)

sa amin motolite gold and yung white lasted only for about 18 months.

i have now motolite excel (green) na almost 1 year old narin and titingnan ko kung lalagpas ng 2 years.
