I think you would probably only need to do this when you IMA battery is getting weak whereby it is unable to store the charged electric over the night
anyway, it did not mention that the lifespan of the IMA battery would be prolonged by practicing this... tongue.gif

agree, i believe, this is one of the way to ensure that the batery is able to store the energy charge, and as an engineer dealing with batery stuffs, i believe, you have to ensure the environment is right - factor such as heat & humidity would affect the life span of the baterry i presume. maybe avoid excessive heat, not sure about banjir (maybe can get electrocuted???....hahaha...)

I got reply from honda malaysia.

warranty will be void if use non original honda parts and accessories, so HID is a big no no for now, if change eibach lower spring, rims, anything related to suspension the warranty is void.

accessories too? that's pretty unfair..Accessories can cover MANY things. Even a door guard is one of accessories. So if you stick a door guard, it will void warranty?

lol..if banjir, 100% the battery will die
make sure the water level does not exceed the level of your car booth (the point below the spare type)
reason being is because the IMA battery is stored there..

if happen to encounter in such situation, i think i might just shutdown the engine and leave...dowan to get electrocuted...hahaha
