how much is a car battery supposed to last?
the life of a car battery depends on factors such as how often it is being charged, the area in which it is being charged, and how many times its discharged.
when the battery is regularly recharged by simply plugging into an outlet or using an alternator to recharge by driving the vehicle, they are able to last for over one year. but if you have a lead-acid battery that has been cycled with deep discharge more than four times per day for over six months at a time, be prepared to buy another battery right away because their life expectancy decreases dramatically.
how much is a car battery in south africa?
south africa has 2 types of car batteries. one is for starting the vehicle and the other is for cranking power which you use to start up your engine.
cranking (or engine) batteries are usually called “heavy duty” because they need more juice than a standard battery. the size of this heavy duty battery is 210 amp/hour, which will give it an 8-year life span if fully charged every day. a normal starter battery lasts 10 years but will last twice as long with one charge per day, so it's worth paying more for this type of starting batter if you're looking to save some money over time because good things come to those who wait 😉
