    My car's battery is more than 3 yrs old now (stock). I am thinking of replacing it and I cannot decide between Amaron or Panasonic.

    1SN for Amaron is P3.5k and Panasonic is P3.2k but with shorter warranty. My stock battery is Thailand and I am very impressed that it lasted so long! The dealer said Panasonic is also Thailand so I am thinking if Panasonic is better though it is cheaper?

    Have it checked at a battery store first, it might still last awhile. My motolite battery lasted 5 years 4 mos. Before it conked out.

    We've tried and used almost every battery brand available in the market for our trucks. GS, Rocket, KOBA, AC Delco, Quantum, Tropical, etc.

    In the long run, we decided to go back to Motolite. Warranty wise, we had no problems with Motolite. Plus, its local, so product tech support thru numerous battery dealers is abundant.

    Ang goal ko maka sampung amaron. Currently on number 7 i think. Hehe. From the first unit to the last one i got, all are working as intended and some are now deployed in demanding conditions.

    Amaron is made in India, isn't it? Is it really of good quality? I read on another thread that Subaru uses Panasonic as its stock battery so I figured it must be good as well.

    Subaru's are imported here as CBU's. Hence they come with "imported" batteries as well. If you take a peek under the hood of the locally assembled (CKD) car's. Chances are its a Motolite.

    Ang mura pala ng bili ng dealers ng amaron sa old batt. P150 lang. Sa Motolite P300.

    I think standard is Php300 for the old batt. Ang mura ng bili sayo ng amaron dealer, try to fnid other amaron dealer if not, edi no choice dyan na lang.

    ^ Congrats. Hehe.

    I have no bad words for Motolite naman, as my Enduro has logged more than 3 years with me and it's now still working perfectly on my brother's Civic. Being a gearhead that I am, I just had to have a taste of the current fad on the market. Not that I'm saying it's something to die out soon, as if it lives up to expectation then I wouldn't hesitate to buy one again. I guess P3,500 for the Amaron 1SN is reasonable enough.
