I just visited a shop in Segambut KL where they sell all arranges of batteries etc.

They informed me that Varta can also be made in Korea in particularly the blue series. Silver series are made in Europe.

No one seems to talk about Amaron? I have been using it in my other car and I just changed to Amaron in daily driver. So far so good with Amaron.

The seller told me that his customers have complained that amaron has signed of evaporazing around the top seals. It doesn't look pretty but shouldn't affect the performance of the battery.

I had a choice of a 800 varta to a 500 amaron and i went with amaron because: -

- been using it and it is good so far.
- 500 amaron might last me over 3 years, no guarantee a varta will last me 5 years.
- year to year costs, amaron is cheaper. Please correct me if i am wrong.
