    aside from Motolite and Outlast, ano pa ba maire-recommend nyo na car battery? Yung same price range lang ng motolite.

    I think my battery is on it's way out na.

    thanks

    Bat ayaw mo Oriental pre? 2 years warranty nun, mga imported kasi pahirapan ang claiming ng warranty.

    Mercury gamit ko right now 3SM, ok naman... mura pa hehe 1500 lang, di nga lang maint free.

    Okay ang Motolite, Oriental at Standard. Yung composition nila are designed specifically for tropicl countries like the Philippines. Kung gusto mo imported, may AC Delco ka or Energizer. Pero, IMO, okey din naman ang local batteries.

    okay thanks very much

    not necessarily ayaw ko sa Motolite or Outlast, just want to try out other brands, kahit local lang.

    First time ko narinig yang Standard, will check this one out, also Oriental.

    Any more suggestions.

    Thanks again

    hmmm. bro, kung ako sa iyo, if for the same price, i'd stick with motolite. kung baka subok na, durable na..."convincing...."

    hirap kasi kung mag try ka pa ng iba, tapos itirik ka nyan in the middle of the road, hassle pa sa iyo.

    i'm not trying to say that other brands are not reliable. just use the one that is tested.

    sa akin, gamit ko ngayon, Motolite na Enduro na Maintenance Free.

    Motolite and Oriental are now produced by the same company after the merger in 1997. At least according to this: http://www.motolite.com/history.htm

    I can still remember this Truman guy... "Oriental Battery. Walang mintis!"

    I don't know if it was psychological, but the beetle had been "walang mintis" during the time it was on Oriental 2SMF until it conked out.

    Conzky, keep the Motolite Hotline handy with your 4yr old Outlast. Too late tong post ni Badkuk my battery went dead two weeks ago inside the Festival mall parking lot and have to buy A/C Delco on nearest Smart Price Shop.

    Yes, motolite and oriental merged na. Tagal na.

    Tip: Kung gusto mo makatipid, hanap ka ng motolite na gusto mo tapos tignan mo warranty period. Tapos hanap ka ng oriental na same ang warranty period, tapos yung oriental ang bilhin mo kasi mas mura yun. Pareho lang laman non kaya para ka ring bumili nang motolite.

    Yung mercury, oriental and motolite corporation din ang may gawa non. Pero iba na yata ang composition nito kaya mas mura talaga.
