    pero anu ang Better, high quality, Preferrable and proven batteries for Sedan? Motolite ba tlga? napansin ko sa may talyer sa amin ung Kulay white na Box ng Motolite ata ung gamit nila? low End ba yun? lets add in the Scenario that you have a 1 sub, 1 Amp Setup, and how long would it last?

    Yung Motolite na OEM ng 96 Sentra ko before, 1.5 years lang ang tinagal. So bili ulit ako Motolite. 1.5 years din.

    I shifted to Metro Force ko (less than 1.6k ang price the time I bought it), mga 4 years bago bumigay. So I bought practically the same brand (Mega Force ata), which lasted 3.5 years. Yung utol ko, kasabay kong bumili ng baterya, Motolite din, wala pang 2 years, wala na. Go figure.

    I tried shifting to GS. I was informed that its made in Japan and has extra plates(which i dont know what it means). Its been 7 months now and so far doing good. Still on the process of observing its life span.

    I just get the cheapest white Motolite maintenance-free batteries.

    I bought a 2SMF a couple months ago, I believe it was a bit less than 4K. They usually last me 2 years, good enough, I'm not willing to pay the premium for the "Gold" ones. The white ones have a 15-month warranty.

    Motolite will give you a 500-peso rebate if you trade in your old Motolite battery. Which reminds me, I haven't hauled my old battery in yet.... 500 din yun.

    Where can you usually get the AC Delco Battery? And is it normal to be priced at around 5K?

    Nasa charging system, heat and vibration properties ang itatagal ng batteries.

    try thunder automotive. you can find their tel no sa yellow pages. they have a QC and a Manila branch.

    Parang may mga dealers din sa Shaw Blvd at Banawe. Dont know the price. You should be able to use other battery brands. They might be cheaper.
