Battery Energizer or Duracell
I have the Energizer battery in mine. It's worked perfectly so far. The included posts are plug and play with the i3 terminals.
Pros: worked perfectly, plug and play
Vehicle:
BMW
So now I will only use Energizer and Sanyo/Panasonic Eneloop bateries I use these rechargable ones in more expensive devices as they do not leek but have had great success with energizer and their max alkaline bateries both stored and in devices and none have leaked.
Pros: no leaks, great success
Don't get cheap ones!
Duracell is your only man
Pros: Duracell is best
Cons: Don't get cheap ones
I replaced the OEM battery in my low-mileage 2019 Alltrack S two days ago. (OEM battery was lead-acid 5K0 915 105 D, it was replaced with a Duracell Ultra Platinum SLI47AGM, 600 CCA.)
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Part number: SLI47AGM
I have a snap-on torque wrench and duracell keeps doing that, I switched over to energizer and it stopped.
Pros: stopped the issue
Cons: duracell keeps doing that
Duracell flooded lead acid would be a good choice and around $200.
Pros: good choice
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 bought the battery last summer, drove the car around for about a month no problems.
I put the car away for autumn/winter.
Took it to auto parts store last night, checked in in the morning.
Employee brought it out, said it needed more time and put it back on "fast charger".
I come back 4hours later and they're telling me it exploded on the charger??
Pros: drove around for a month
Cons: exploded on the charger
Vehicle:
Mazda
I started using Energizer a few years ago after EVERY SINGLE DURACELL BATTERY in a 24-pack I bought corroded just as badly as the 1st battery on the left in your picture! This was regardless of whether the battery was in a device like a clock that was always running, in a device that is used when needed like my flashlight, or stored in my home office.
Pros: prevent alkaline leakage
Cons: Duracell corroded badly
Name brand but avoid ebay. I bought some energizers and panasonics from more than one (supposedly reputable) ebay seller a while back that didn't last more than a month or so.
Cons: didn't last long
Vehicle:
Kia
