vs
Battery Tesla or Exide
I got a `EA530 exide 079te` for my leaf just over a year ago and so far it's still working perfect.
Pros: still working perfect
Vehicle:
Nissan Leaf
Part number: EA530 EXIDE 079TE
Exide are great batteries and are a tier 1 supplier with Yuasa, Bosch, Varta.
Pros: great batteries
Vehicle:
Volvo
I had a 12v battery give me a low voltage warning and they just came around and changed it.
Pros: easy replacement
Cons: low voltage warning
IMHO, Exide works well till the last second and then dies off without any symptoms. Amaron shows alot of symptoms like extra cranking and lights dim for interior and dash lights when it's nearing its demise. Hence I moved to amaron. So should you.
Pros: Amaron shows symptoms
Cons: Exide dies without symptoms
After reading all replies and knowing the price of the dealers option, I took my chance with a Exide battery AGM 12-23, it was a perfect fit.
Pros: perfect fit
Part number: AGM 12-23
I don't think they are good at inverters, but I have used their battery for ups which lasted 4 years, now i am using the second one which completed one year
Pros: battery lasted 4 years
2018 M3P with 54K and it is right at 7%
Pros: right at 7%
Mileage: 54000 km
My 2019 M3 with 50K miles says 288 miles today (310 original) but it has been far lower at times (255 miles) and bounces around.
Pros: 288 miles today
Cons: bounces around
Mileage: 50000 km
Exide Battery (demolished)
Cons: demolished
battery life is astonishingly unpredictable. I drove 20 miles, but lost ~35 miles of range. Not driving crazy, either. Everything else is decent, but can't help but feel like it's a time bomb.
Cons: unpredictable range, significant range loss
