vs
Battery SAMSUNG or Deka
Deka batteries. I’ve turned wrenches for twenty years and they’re the only ones that still consistently test far above their rated capacity when new. I have one that’s 7 years old and just installed one in my other rig last year.
Pros: above rated capacity, long lifespan
Maybe they’ve finally fixed the Doze mode they promised? Because, from what I can tell, my battery never improved after they released One UI 7. I’ve had this phone for two years, and the battery always dropped quickly - even when it was just sitting idle. But today, for the first time since I got the device, I unplugged it in the morning and still had 50% remaining by midnight.
Pros: 50% battery remaining
Cons: battery dropped quickly
UPdate - new battery and bluetooth 12v monitor installed last Monday night, all good since then including one day with 40 miles of driving and recharging in weather well below freezing (16 to 28 F), but I happen to be mostly driving other cars the rest of the time since.
FYI, altho I ordered from Remy, the sticker on the battery I received says [Deka Intimidator EHP](https://remybattery.com/batteries/brand/deka-intimidator-batteries.html?srsltid=AfmBOorxsFi7eoMbizQPDMsF1q-32WuvMxLPyiLSgftX8ExWmqHWSfq4). IDK if there's any functional difference - it seems to have the exact same terminal connections as the OEM BMW battery it replaced.
Also FWIW, despite no indicator on the shipping box for 'this side up' and it clearly getting Ace-Ventura'd around by FedEx, it did not leak or show any signs of damage inside the shipping box. It was well padded with foam made to fit the battery and fill the entire shipping box. So far I'm happy and the car seems to be too.
Pros: happy with new battery
Vehicle:
BMW
OEM for Harley. I've replaced several with an average lifespan of 5 yrs at 20%+ cheaper than Harley branded
Pros: long lifespan, cheaper
As a harley tech I see more aftermarket batteries fail then I see oem ones fail. There are a few good aftermarkets like DEKA but for the most part aftermarket batteries seem to fail quicker then oem.
Pros: OEM batteries more reliable
Cons: aftermarket batteries fail quicker
Deka. Solid battery.
Pros: solid battery
My Mechanic had me get non-AGM style from Deka. I have the dual battery setup, and have drained my spare a few times already and it’s out performed the previous brands.
Pros: outperformed previous brands, withstood draining
I could get about 10 hours of youtube at around 20% brightness with average volume at 60hz locked Not as good as previous tablets imo.
Pros: 10 hours of youtube
Cons: worse than previous tablets
I just stream movies and the battery life is really pathethic. After 1 hour of prime video, its already down 15-20%. Got it a week ago brand new. I enabled battery saver on day 1 as well.
Pros: enabled battery saver
Cons: battery life pathethic
Yes, I have had this tablet for less than a year with moderate to medium use and I am already looking for a replacement. I am looking to do it myself and I am not that skilled but I will give it a go, but it isn't great that the battery is already needing a charge once a day even with "battery saver mode" applied.
Pros: battery saver mode
Cons: charge once a day
