You must be one of the first Amaron user I guess. smile.gif Ok will add Amaron to the list.

Once I get my battery Analyzer & battery Charger instead of checking out testimonials only, I am going to start conducting various tests throughout my community and their batteries. That should give me a better analysis of what's good & what's crap.

I believe as customers when we purchase better built quality items, manufacturers with good practices will remain in the industry and weed out bad practices.

However when customers starts selecting for the cheapest on the shelf, it signals to the manufacturers that quality is NOT priority, hence the market will be flooded with all kinds of crap and manufacturers with good practices will find it hard to compete.

Darn right, price is one important factor. At first i also hesitate to go for Amaron brand as price is slightly higher but I have friend have been using it for more than 3 years hence i gave it a try, now mine lasted more than 4 years and still using, my mechanic did told me since the battery is already more than 3 years if one day I find my car hard to start, got to replace battery immediately.

If the car is without modern day electronics there's nothing to lose, I guess.

But if it's equipped with modern day electronics etc & it gets damaged because of weakening or dead battery, then it becomes an expensive lesson altogether.

If I were in your shoes, I would be extra vigilant now onwards as it has breached the 4 year lifespan mark. I am interested to know how long would your Amaron lasts too & good luck.
