This is in general discussion. Allowed, I think.NTL2009 said:You would get better information from a car-focused forum/source. Identifying the 'best' (by what measure, cost, cold weather performance, hot weather performance, durability, warranty, etc?) brand of battery has nothing to do with physics (thought the battery manufacturer is using physics in the design - but that is mostly hidden from us).
Questions like this are "noise" in a physics forum, IMO.
Except for politics etc. ...Grands said:I thought that in the general discussions are allowed almost any kind of thread.
Anyway, does someone know how much the car battery can last if I will charge it?
OK, but I still think he'd get much better info on a local forum (I imagine some of the battery outlets/brands and prices in the US are different from what is available in Italy). Might even want to check a forum on the specific car the battery is going in to.Stavros Kiri said:This is in general discussion. Allowed, I think.
Dyno sounds good ...

It's not a problem to buy stuff from USA, sometimes is more cheap than in Italy because there aren't so many taxes.NTL2009 said:OK, but I still think he'd get much better info on a local forum (I imagine some of the battery outlets/brands and prices in the US are different from what is available in Italy).

It seems like the shipping would double the price of a heavy item like a battery...Grands said:It's not a problem to buy stuff from USA, sometimes is more cheap than in Italy because there aren't so many taxes.
Not every shop online do that, and this is not the point of the question, I just asked a good brand for car battery.berkeman said:It seems like the shipping would double the price of a heavy item like a battery...
So cost is no object. Got it. You probably should have said that in your first post in the thread then...Grands said:and this is not the point of the question
CATERPILLAR®Which is the best brand for a car battery ?
OK, let's test that. On my morning walks, I often pass by an O'Reilly car-parts store (a big chain in the US). On their https://www.oreillyauto.com/, I apparently can't bring up a general list of all brands of batteries that they stock, so I specified my car and got a single brand: Super Start. Do you have that brand where you live?Stavros Kiri said:Country or continent may be relevant, but not necessarilly on a universal market ...
I decided that must be an O'Reilly store brand, so I tried Amazon (US). I got listings for ACDelco, ExpertPower, Odyssey, Optima, Exide, PowerSonic, MotoBatt, and XS Power. There may be more, but I scrolled through only 3-4 pages of results. Free shipping within the US, which surprised me because of the weight, typically about 30 pounds (about 13-14 kg). But I bet the shipping is built into the price, and it's only within the US, anyway. Shipping from the US to Europe looks like about USD$65.jtbell said:OK, let's test that. [...] O'Reilly car-parts store [...] Super Start.
The name reminds me of something. I think I've come across it at some point in the US, but I' m not really sure. But then, once you know it, you can order it anywhere, most of the time ...jtbell said:Super Start. Do you have that brand where you live?
Have you tried to look for it?Grands said:What if I want to replace with the original one, where can I find it?
Yes, but I didn't found it on Internet, I searched for hours.Mark44 said:Have you tried to look for it?
What's the brand name for this battery?Grands said:What if I want to replace with the original one, where can I find it?
When choosing the best brand for a car battery, there are several factors to consider. These include the battery's size, type, cold-cranking amps (CCA), reserve capacity, and warranty.
It is difficult to determine which brand offers the longest-lasting car batteries as it depends on various factors such as the type of vehicle, driving habits, and climate. It is important to research and read reviews to find a brand known for its durability and longevity.
In most cases, it is worth paying more for a well-known brand. These brands often have a reputation for producing high-quality batteries that are reliable and long-lasting. However, it is still important to consider the specific features and specifications of the battery rather than just the brand name.
Some popular brands for car batteries include Optima, DieHard, ACDelco, Bosch, and Interstate. These brands are known for their quality and reliability in the automotive industry.
No, it is important to use a car battery that is compatible with your vehicle. This includes considering the battery's size, type, and specifications recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer. Using an incompatible battery can cause damage to your vehicle and affect its performance.
