Seanboi 1st Gear September 17, 2012 Share September 17, 2012 guys, u are all talking about maintenance free batteries right? i heard MF batteries have shorter lifespan than conventional top-up water ones. is this true? Based on my experience, yes. My non-MF batt lasted a freaking four years! I rather go through the trouble of topping up water for an additional 2yrs.

I rather go through the trouble of topping up water for an additional 2yrs. my current amaron MF batt lasted more than 3 1/2yrs... still working but a bit weak... i think it can at least last another 3 4 months but i dont want to risk it so gonna replace it...

Chucky2007 Turbocharged September 18, 2012 Share September 18, 2012 Its reasonable...my change at 2200hrs ..$130 battery...$45 labour..also 45amp Wah.. chop carrot. I kanna a flat on Sunday. Mainly bec car was left not driven for 3-4days weekly for past 3 weeks. I installed a defusalator call nanopulser. They had a emergency service.. called up the number, mechanic Ah Ho drove to me within an hour, saw that I had a 60ah battery but he only brough a smaller 45ah batt.. he asked me to drive back together w him at Mx to get the big batt after jump start my car. I paid $66 for a 60ah Korean batt, low price is good, but the process of someone jumpstart my car very soon when my car is stuck at a macdonald is priceless!

You are lucky. Mine died within 2years. Given a choice I will still go back to the typical wet battery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
