Besides the degenerative process of sulfation which occurs on 84% of lead acid batteries, there are other contributing factors you should know when buying a battery as well as maintaining one that directly affect the life span of your battery. The quality and brand of the battery. Usually costlier batteries last longer as there is more lead in the batteries. Some brands below RM100 are cheap...

read moreFor excessive vibration applications, in off-road operation, or extreme conditions, it is best to use a spiral wound AGM VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead-Acid) car or deep cycle battery because there is no shedding of active plate material since the plates are immobilized. In addition, they also use GRT (Gas Recombinant Technology) and have all of the characteristics of the AGM (Ca/Ca) VRLA batteries...
