You're using the unsealed battery? What would you recommend for a regular sedan but im also a power user in that even my laptop is already 260W, and planning to get an inverter capable of continuous 2KW+ though mostly for passenger to use when driving (will ask workshop to run separate wire with the right terminal inside). Though not planning to use a lot of power when the engine is off, only thing to power before starting the engine are the dash cams (planning on front and back), and a custom reverse camera (screen + camera) which would get powered when the key is inserted.
Any way to replace the electrodes after it wears out or must the whole battery be replaced? I'd like to do DIY but supercaps cost a lot, was thinking of having a supercap + NIMH solution in the future when i have money as i can do the circuit part myself even the assembly, only thing is the caps itself are very very expensive.
They might use lithium in the west, but in malaysia i find lithium to be a poor solution since it tends to go bad faster.
I'm using those maintenance free battery, which is sealed.
My car all stock, no dash cam, no HID light, even headlight also not always on. I almost drive everyday more than half an hour. But still it won't last very long.

Based on the impedance reading, it's still in good shape. It might probably last for another 2 - 4 months(my estimations). If it hit below 300cca or the impedance reading is more than 10, your will notice that the cranking is slow during starting the vehicle.
Thanks, bro. This is nice info.
Because the device straightaway stated 'Replace' , and the staff ask me to change as well, make me uncomfortable.
Lot of people manage to use Amaron almost 3 years or more...
I manage to find my old photo which i snap before i change my last battery, SOH =7%, SOC 98%, 12.62V, 115A, Rated 425A.
I notice my current battery when new SOH is 88%, should it be 100%?
