ER-3682 Twincharged October 21, 2012 Share October 21, 2012 how long can amaron 45mah battery last on a Latio stock? mine was changed on feb 2011, and so far no symptoms of problem. For Japanese car,because of the heat in the engine bay,i think 18 months should be a safe bet,for some European models,where the battery is in the boot,i heard most owners said about 3 years. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcscot 5th Gear October 22, 2012 Share October 22, 2012 Errr ... I am a newbie to cars and recently I was at CNC and they told me my battery is 50/50 charge (I drive Kia Cerato for 20 months) but I was hesitant as I am not getting any symptoms of low battery but I plan to change in the next 6 months. Can someone explain why during battery change must insist on a backup battery or something like that? Thanx! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I changed Amaron S$170 for 74AH. i thot is the lowest. that is my mechanic whom I go to for 20 years already the item cost is $130 but there are other servicing costs also lah I believe he make a little more and a little less here and there but if you just walk in and just buy the battery from him I don't think you will get this price.

Enye Hypersonic October 30, 2012 Share October 30, 2012 (edited) then u cannot say TS is carroted cos is not an apple to apple comparison...your mechanic is "stretch long patch short" if u know how to translate to mandarin even then, I know he is also not carroting me. e.g. 1 pair of brakepads $100 incl labour. thats why i usually don't go through the inconvenience of buying from stockists and then visit the workshop.

Piggy83sg Clutched October 30, 2012 Share October 30, 2012 Y need to use spare battery to charge ? U may wish to refer to this topic: http://www.mycarforum.com/index.php?showtopic=2680930 Although its the traditional method, but its not the correct procedure to start car engine den change the battery. The alternator current may produce fluctuate voltage that can cause damage to the electronic stuff (audio, sensor, ecu... etc) inside ur car. So using spare battery can prevent all that.

Piggy83sg Clutched October 30, 2012 Share October 30, 2012 The bigger AH battery can last more longer ? Depend on ur car gadget whether is stock or got ICE. Normally higher AH can last longer, but provided ur battery rack can slot in the bigger size battery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
