Battery OEM Mazda or Energizer
I didn't get long lasting power from "any brand name". Switching to Energizer or Panasonic did much better, like 2 years.
Pros: better, lasted 2 years
Cons: not long lasting power
Now I stick to Energizer Max batteries, they claim a 10 year shelf life, and I have some that are 5 years old that are still near 100% state of charge, with no leaks.
Pros: 10 year shelf life, no leaks
I had an Energizer battery last 13 years in my ranger. Problem was when it came time to change it I couldn't find them anywhere.
Pros: last 13 years
Cons: couldn't find replacement
Bought my Energizer back in 2013, haven’t let me down once :)
Pros: haven’t let me down
Even then the Mazda oem battery is trash. My battery only last me 15k miles, and I bought it new.
Cons: short lifespan
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 24140 km
I Have had the Mazda CX60 Azumi Tukami G40 Turbo 6cl petrol engine for 12 months now and have had this back at the dealership several times. I believe I have the lemon of the bunch.
Continual Istop issues, it has needed reprogramming twice. The battery has failed testing and needed replacing.
Cons: istop issues, battery failed
Vehicle:
Mazda
the stock battery only lasted 3 years. My VW prior lasted 7 on the OEM battery.
Cons: short lifespan
Vehicle:
Mazda
Battery died less than 12000 miles. Apparently Mazda is using cheap batteries, as this seems to be a common issue. But I still see others complain about the same thing.
Cons: died early, cheap quality, common issue
Vehicle:
Mazda 3
Mileage: 12000 km
first issue I had was the battery at around 2000 miles, it was replaced under warranty.
Pros: replaced under warranty
Cons: failed early
Vehicle:
Mazda
Mileage: 2000 km
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
