Battery for Diesel Engines

[userfriendly]

for outlast batteries, will the price be lower (kahit a couple of hundred pesos) sa main office nila sa n.domingo vs other dealers?

will switching back (due to money restrictions) to a 2sm from a 3sm have any negative effect in the life of the battery or the vehicle (2004 dmax)?

casa orig 2sm lasted just over a year. current 3sm motolite is still working at 2yrs and 4mos but parang mahina narin coz pag naka hazard or mag switch on, malakas na mag dim momentarily display lights. i think some reported their original 2sm battery lasted 2 years even for a diesel engined vehicle.

thanks

Pareho lang yata ang price. If 2sm is the original battery, then it should be good enough. I think, the life of a battery depends more on the price and materials used than the size.
