Battery Adventures Labor Day Weekend
Yeah I paid $103 on 14 October 2014 for a calcium calcium group 34 engine starting battery. Had no choice -- an LTH battery was 155 miles distant.
"I wonder if someone has improved upon the life of a wonder fully sealed calcium calcium battery?"
Short answer. Hell No
It lasted until 1 September. Today. 3-years 11 months. Perhaps 15 engine starts per week. Engine starts within 3 seconds. Never ever ever cycled. Not the tiniest amount.
For the last week the car started but I could not hear the starter motor. Today I heard the engine Unh...Unh...Unh... gear reduction starters require a lot less amps than a regulardriven starter.
One of my friends is a talented Mexican Mechanic. He was playing Chofer today.
"Que Quieres?" he asked politely.
"COSTCO!" I suggested.
With permission the battery was changed the first parking stall outside Costco's Tire Bays. Celsi tried the starter 3 times and the engine started normally with the normal sound and speed before you changed the battery.
"A Mexican driver would cross himself two times, and keep going"
"This driver is going to cross-asphalt ONCE and return with a new battery." I replied.
Four years later a 42 month free rep years a battery cost me five dollars less is six-pounds heavier.
Wanna know the brand name of the piece of snot calcium calcium battery?
