vs
Battery Duracell or OEM Audi
The best lead acid type of battery is a Duracell/East Penn hybrid/house AGM deep cell. These have thicker plates and are typically used for RVs and boats. They can tolerate deeper discharge and are less susceptible to damage (AGM). They sacrifice a little instantaneous current output, but that's not needed on an EV.
Pros: tolerate deeper discharge
Cons: sacrifice current output
We’ve always had luck with Duracell in our cars.
Pros: always had luck
The replacement battery I bought was a Duracell from Sam’s Club. Fit and worked fine.
Pros: worked fine, good fit
Vehicle:
Jeep Renegade
It's a lovely car, but very bad on the efficiency. We have a 55 and the range varies from 150 in the winter to 250 in the summer. Honestly, for the money you'll struggle to get more car, it's very comfortable, quick, and has mountains of room inside. Ours is a 2019 on 70k miles, and has had zero issues
Pros: very comfortable, quick
Cons: bad on the efficiency
Vehicle:
Audi
Mileage: 112654 km
Mizerii, nimic nu bate Duracell, da, relativ mai scumpe dar nu mi se pare exagerat la cat duc.
Pros: long lasting
Cons: relatively more expensive
Not near Utah but here on the west coast I use Powersonic or Genesis or Yuasa with good luck. For some reason all the Duracells I have purchased over the years fail about a year out of install.
Pros: good luck with Powersonic
Cons: Duracells fail quickly
I drive a 15 year old gas powered Audi Q7. Still runs like new. My issue with EVs is you can't just keep them tuned up when they're old. No matter how good of care you take of it, the battery will decay and lose capacity.
Pros: runs like new
Cons: battery will decay
Vehicle:
Audi Q7
FWIW…. I’ve had 3 Duracell batteries and all have died within 3 years of manufacture date, and they have a 2yr warranty.
Cons: died within 3 years
I'm not putting a Duracell in my car, they can't even make a double A that doesn't leak within the year.
Cons: leaks within year
Power Sonic or Yuasa. Duracell is great for lots of service every year after an inspection. Never seen them make it to the next inspection alive.
Pros: Power Sonic or Yuasa
Cons: Duracell never last
