Battery selection something like a big lottery.Given that the market offers a huge variety of models, and sellers are working with them for a long time and can recommend the best, it can not be completely sure that the battery purchased lasts long enough.Why is that?Since there is now a huge number of fakes.And the reason is the mass of the emerging low-quality batteries, presented at manufacturers such as Bosh or Varta.It is difficult to determine why this is happening.Those who live in a big city, a lot easier.It is enough to read the reviews of other motorists on the batteries, which are sold in the shops of the city.In addition, it is necessary to acquire some theoretical knowledge, while in conversation with the seller you do not do negative impressions.It is necessary to know what kind of battery to buy, why do you need it.And it is necessary for the following: start the engine, stabilize power surges car, take a portion of the load while the engine is idling.
How to choose the battery
There are low-maintenance and maintenance-free battery.The first is necessary to periodically pour the electrolyte, while the latter do not need to add anything.Moreover, the first fall in the dry cell, which are stored for a long time, however, before using them on their own need to fill the electrolyte;and uploaded to the conditions of manufacture.It is believed that the latter view is much better, because the water is cleaner factories and technology out there to exercise strict.However, WET batteries will not be stored longer than a year.The right thing to buy such a device, which was released less than two months ago.Analyzing the question of how to choose a battery, it is important to know what is written in the technical passport of your car.You have to see whether the car manufacturer recommends any particular brand of battery as well as inrush current, you need to run the motor car.
How to choose battery: notes
battery capacity is the second important parameter when the value of the inrush current.Capacity - the ability of the device to support the work vehicle electrical offline.Car manuals usually contains information about the capacity, depending on engine capacity and type of fuel used car - diesel or gasoline, and the type of feed - injection or carburetor.Passenger car lacks capacity within 55-56 ampere-hours.From container and the cost depends on the battery, the higher it is, the higher the price.An experienced dealer is required to see to it that you do not take the battery from over or under capacity.
If we talk about how to pick up the battery to the car brand, then it's hard to navigate even at cost.For the Patriots as the best option are the Tyumen battery production, their real capacity is usually 15-20% higher than that stated in the technical documentation.
Let us see what pay is not worth it:
- For marked "potassium".Manufacturers say that in them the water boils slowly, so the electrolyte in them to pour less, but in practice it turns out that such batteries hiss at sharp drops, while there is abundant gas evolution.
- For marking "silver".It seems that the addition of this metal makes them more durable, however, it is important for the machines operated by a couple of times a year.With daily driving is no difference at all.
If you have already made your choice, it is necessary to cast a glance battery last time to see the leave-in time of manufacture, and the address of the producing countries.Conclusions should always be lubricated with glue and covered technical cap.Now that you know how to choose the battery.
