Wah...explanation like that means you better buy coffin now since you also don't know when you gonna die.. 
In most cases, we won't know unless you keep a voltmeter in your car. There might sometimes be symptom like harder to start where it cranks slowly during cold starting, light dimming, RPM unstable (jumping a bit), etc.
If you're not sure, then at every service interval, you can ask mechanic to check the battery voltage. In general, if voltage is 14 volts running but the voltage is less than the 12 volts with the engine off, your battery is not holding a charge and should be replaced.
Otherwise drive until it fails or you begin to suspect something wrong...keep phone number of AAM or insurance tow call service at hand.

It's best to let eric install for you when you buy from him. Each car got their own most effective spots for grounding, he knows it all. He also do cleaning of battery terminal for you as well....foc.
As for the affect, currently driving the civic since he installed both VS and GC last week, acceleration smoothen, cold start smoother and somehow lessen a bit on engine noise and vibration. VS might not have much affect on these but GC.....I recommend it esp for cars where stock GC has corroded....big difference.

I don't recommend flushing on anything. Just shorten the interval of your ATF change by half, change it early, 1 or 2 times, it will clear itself unless it has already sludge.
Engine wise, I do not recommend syn to "clean" the engine....coz chances are you're going to drag 10K to "cover" the price. Use semi syn, service at 5K interval on time, do that a few times to "clean" the engine properly. The 5K semi syn interval is better to "clean" the engine than 10K high efficient FS. You can go for Havoline semi syn 10W40 with its rating of SN that upgraded cleaning properties and anti-wear.
hahaha, knew you would say something. maybe i use the wrong term, my flushing would be using the atf to flush. means drain the old oil, pour in some and drain again since atf can't be 100% drained. the use of FS to clean the engine for me is strictly to make sure it is changed in 5k.

since as mentioned his car might edi have been damaged, if for me, the small amount is worth the paying to recover the car condition.
you havent try on PE for the GC?

btw, what is the VLT of most of the people tinting here? legal?exactly at the border?
mine at last removed the proton safe tint and went for tint.
the VLT is 50% for side and rear, 70% for front. but then seems very dark. is it I am not use to the darkness or it will become slightly less dark after few days?
