vs
Battery Energizer or OEM Volvo
I put a Japan made energizer 2300mh storage at least for 8 monts, charged before storage and surprise, they make my flash work very quick even at maximum power, recycling flash time is even better than manufacturer specs.
Pros: quick flash, better specs
Cons: weak chinese made
I\u2019ve owned an S60 T8 for 2 and a half years now. Like others have said Volvo PHEVs deplete the battery first by default before touching the gas engine.
Pros: deplete battery first
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
I have been driving a 2023 S60 Recharge for 2 years now. If someone told you it's bad to drive them with the battery depleted, they lied to you.
Pros: rear wheels always powered
Vehicle:
Volvo S60
I typically use what is shipped with the packaging. Most of my red dots are trijicon and they ship with energizer so I will continue to use it. I feel the companies do their own testing trail and error with battery life and usage at all power levels under all temperatures.
Pros: good battery life
Energizer. Better QC than Duracell imho.
Pros: better quality control
My 3 years old XC60 battery has been diagnosed as bad 55% last 2 weeks ago, I said to them keep it as I feel they are still good and road worthy. Gonna do a snapshot again at another 6 months to evaluate.
Pros: still good and road worthy
Cons: diagnosed as bad 55%
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
Only things that went a couple months back was the EGR and a window mechanism. And the battery a year before.
Cons: battery replacement
Vehicle:
Volvo V40
Mileage: 200000 km
Energizer is a shit battery. I had to put an Energizer one out of no options and that barely lasted a year.
Cons: barely lasted a year
This is the worst battery i tried, Enegizer lasted less than a year, maybe around 6 months only and it started dying.
Cons: died in 6 months
Paid charging is problematic mainly because the T8 charges so slow. You'd have to leave your car at a charger for like 5.5 hours to fill the battery.
Cons: slow charging speed
Vehicle:
Volvo
