Hope this helps. Do write a review afterwards, okay? rclxms.gif

Ya I call the salesperson and he directed me to a dealer near me
Oh I didn't realize they have a website

Anyway I bought NS60LS for Rm220 but another fella in mudah selling for 180 but he is too far from me
I dunno 220 is a good price or not

Is it a Maintenance-free battery? I got some local-branded (don't remember the name) maintenance-free NS60 for RM240. I think RM220 for maintenance-free is okaylah, but you should use the website and survey the shops near your area for prices.

Charging of handphones in car...does it use up battery?

Yes it does (but very little energy is transferred), but it doesn't really matter when you have started the engine.

When to topup battery water? During cold or after having driven the car?

It doesn't matter -- do it when it's convenient.

I got a question, would a higher ranked CCA maintenance-free battery last longer than a wet battery with less CCA ranking? I was looking up online and the CCA rating for the wet batteries tend to be lower than their MF counterparts.

Do you have an unused lotion/body soap pump? Clean and rinse it well and when it's dry, suck water out of the battery hole. Wear gloves, please. Or get turkey baster/syringes.

I was thinking is time to change too, just that I don’t fully believe what service centre mentioned to me as they may likely feedback that items change here and there.

Therefore, I was seeking feedback of my battery condition in here who has the experience or expert, if really going to be in bad condition, yup I will definitely change it to avoid any unforeseen happen.

Thanks all for your kind sharing ya !! 😁

Just to add on, you could always go to a battery shop and they'll check it for free with a tester that says "Good or bad" battery.

I wasn't expecting people to be so butthurt so bad.

My intention wasn't to remove all the water and acid inside, just the excess. I don't want anyone to get hurt from this. Anyway, should've known, Ktek has driven his car, so the distilled water would've mixed already.
