My amaron just over warranty. Now started to show weak.

I remember seller told me 12 months. Bought it around rm300 for a 55D23L. No proof of purchase anyway.

That is not good if the acid touch your car body.

BTW, white powder over terminal is also not a good sign. Poor contact, under charge, overcharge all result to white power.

Well I think you should try to claim but I doubt seller would honor it. I used to have a battery which does leak and I never insist on replacement. In the end the acid overflow to the extend that it rust the car body and gearbox.

Battery should be water tight. Extra pressure or gas should escape from vent holes only.

I just double check my amoron battery it is amaron Pro. Saw a seller offering amaron Pro battery warranty from 18 months to 24 months.

Just wondering if anyone know is there anyway to get the battery warranty if I lost the proof of purchase? I saw a white sticker with some sort of serial number on top of the battery. Not sure if that can be used to trace the purchasing date.

Alternator voltage regulator will need some time to respond when there's a spike. Sometimes devices/equipment in the car draw more power than usual and the regulator couldn't respond fast enough hence the car die without battery support.

Received my spiral agm battery ordered from China and have it installed. So far so good. The terminal is a bit smaller compared with what we have here though. I'm running out of copper tape so I use aluminum foil to wrap up the terminal.

I can't conclude the quality yet but what I can say it is a true maintenance free battery where there is no liquid involved unlike those so called maintenance free battery found in the market. No need to worry about spill. No sound at all when I was trying to shake the battery, pretty solid.

The higher voltage does not really worry me. It just 0.2 V more than normal battery. Basically most of the sensitive electronic in your car would lower down the voltage to requirement.

It is said that spiral agm charge faster than normal battery and I think that holds true. I deliberately have the battery discharge for hours, start the car, and voltage back to normal in just minutes (voltage does not mean charges it hold but it can be used as indicator though)

Thanks for the clarification. Some low maintenance battery does lost more electrolyte than other though. Yokohama MF gold for example did a lot of mess on my car when it spill during the trip coming back from Cameron, while the Panasonic wet battery does not require top up throughout its one year service (short life though).

Yeah battery indicator turn on so probably alternator is bad. Check the battery if voltage is above 13V when engine is running. Anything less than 13V then alternator is bad.

Well it is commonly assume that overcharge will cause white powder at positive terminal. Many were claiming such, probably due to positive terminal side was heating up when overcharged. As far as I concern, it's all come to the quality of the battery housing. Bad housing at terminal are causing leak after some time.

Answer to your question, no I can't give the definite answer and I doubt there's absolute answer out there.
