Might anyone have any feedback on the general lifespan of Incoe batteries ?
I know of course that the lifespan of batteries can be quite subjective, but
just wanted an idea.

I've been using mine for exactly one and a half years and was wondering
how much longer it might last. I have an NS60-L, non-maintenace free, in a
Proton Iswara 1.3. Hoping to use it as long as I can, as batteries don't come
cheap these days.

I remember reading one of the Filipino car forums and one guy said his
standard non-MF Incoe NS60 was still going strong after four years !

Incoe is supposed to be a Japanese brand, made in Indonesia. I think their
NS60 have 11 plates, but some say only 9.

Mine still starts fairly strong in the mornings, and doesn't need much of a
topping up, maybe 5 mm per cell a month.

because of the lacking info on this battery....


i'll reply this old thread for the sake of adding information....


been using INCOE NS60L battery for record time which is about 4years...

and that with battery size used is UNDERSIZED... (my oem battery size in the car is 55D23L)

plus i've accidentally left the cabin lights on whole night not ONCE... not TWICE... but quite a lot of time it drained the battery out....


i've just recharged the battery back and they were perfect again... untill recently...

it was officially dead (not holding charge overnight)....

so thats it... NS60L MF INCOE battery last for about 4 years...(May 2013- August 2017) thumbup.gif



now i'm running oem size 55D23L AMARON PRO battery...

FOUR YEARS is an extremely long lifespan for a battery these days,
moreover maintenance free, which usually lasts shorter than normal types.
MF batteries typically lasts about two years, two and a half at most.

I've just changed over to a normal Incoe NS60L a few weeks ago.

Bought at AME Auto at Sea Park for $ 170. Batteries don't come cheap
these days.

yeah... but that came with extra carefull maintenance like trickle charging it at home when not used for long time....

plus water topup during last year after i've drained the battery charge accidentally so many time....

Trickle charge  ?

You mean you bought an electronic battery charger to use at home.

yeap... i do have small 12v battery charger at home....

not newly bought... but been using it for long time since i regularly need to charge battery for my race bike and other purpose....

so manually charging car battery at home is nothing new for me...
