Car Batteries

[donald22]

sinong familiar sa motolite batteries dito? napansin ko lang sa isang store yung package ng battery ay may iba't ibang kulay ng sticker at may iba't ibang number tapos may nakasulat na factory fresh. merong 20 25 40 and so on. kasi i asked the seller pero di daw nya alam
curious lang.

The numbers should be the ones indicating the months of warranty for the specific model of battery.

The difference? I would think it is the thickness of the plates used to make that battery. Thicker plates are more durable, cost more and should last longer.

hmmm i don't think so afaik enduro has only 15 months of warranty but number on sticker was 40 ata.

Mine is a Motolite Enduro 3SMF . It has a 15 month warranty specified on the sticker of the battery

Motolite batteries seem to have deteriorated in quality. I had 2 Motolite batteries replaced within the warranty period, and the dealer also told me that they've been receiving a lot of defective batteries under warranty lately.

What's a good alternative brand of car battery can you suggest?

^^ oriental gamit ko... more than 4 yrs na at 13.8v pa rin

What's a good alternative brand of car battery can you suggest?

3 of our 4 vehicles, GS ang gamit. Medyo mura. Satisfactory but not awesome performance. Motolites seem to offer a longer warranty period.

Ayaw mo Bosch?

Are symbols like N40, N100, N120, etc... I'm not sure if these are Motolite's code for their own battery or some kind of international standard. Either way, I only see this on Motolites.

Check out to see what they mean.

Where can I buy Bosch batteries? Do they have warranty?

Bosch battery here also. Bought from the Bosch outlet along Banawe.

I think these colored stickers coding that tells the batches of battery, these are used as a guide for manufacturer or sellers of battery so as to have FIFO (first in - first out) policy in selling the battery. So that freshness is always guaranteed.

vent cap type batteries are guaranteed fresh and dry charged until activated by electrolyte. sealed maintenance free batteries have a shelf life

[number001]

A battery dealer told me that maintenance-free are supposedly better than low maintenance bec. it does not emit acid vapor through the vent caps since it is completely sealed (unlike low maintenance). Is any of this true or just a sales talk to buy the higher priced maintenance free batteries?
