I got an already fully charged duracell battery at my local Batteries and Bulbs location in California. Works like a charm just needed to get top posts for it to work in the i3.
Replaced with: Duracell Ultra Platinum AGM Battery SLI49AGM
Probably the easiest car to swap a battery on imo. Just remove and replace, negative off first. Bosch is good quality, but not required...Use 80Ah 12V.
I am using Bosch battery for my BMW, going through my 2nd, it lasts for 2 years+, less than 50% of the price of the dealership
Also the original equipment Bosch battery that came in my wife's 2006 TDI Golf when we bought it in 2015. The good ones aren't available anymore by the time they wear out.
My truck has a 4 or 5 year old Bosch in it, still works great.
At one time Bosch batteries had a terrible reputation but they now have their quality control back on track.
Some BOSCH batteries used on VW cars last around 2 years or a bit more but cost appropriately.
Duracell killed 6 pieces of electronics of mine over 10 years. If you paid me, I would not use them.
We refuse to buy Duracell. They leak and are awful. Never again.
