Why are batteries not durable
If you feel that the replacement battery is not as durable as the original one, it does not necessarily mean that the original battery is as good as the original battery. It is very likely that the battery you purchased later was not the right one.
- The original battery is also from a third party
Some friends think so: "The original battery is really great. It is specially customized and cannot be bought outside." This may be a bit misunderstood.
Because the car manufacturers themselves do not produce batteries, the so-called "original" batteries are also provided by third-party brands as a package.
In other words, as long as the brand and model are correct, the battery you buy from a third-party store is actually exactly the same as the original battery. There is no situation where the original battery is better. What is relatively important to note is that when replacing the battery, ask clearly for the parameters. If you really can't tell for sure, just point your phone at the battery, take a photo of everything with words or symbols, and send it to customer service. Ask him to send the battery as well, and we can check it as it is, and generally there won't be any problems.
- Why is the replacement battery not durable?
But there are still many friends who think this way. I feel exactly the same way myself. The replaced battery is really not as durable as the original one when I bought the car.
What on earth is going on?
The most direct thing is that when you encounter a shady businessman, the battery you replace is not a new one, but a refurbished one. This situation is relatively rare, but not impossible.
The technical threshold for refurbishing a battery is not high. You may change the electrolyte, get new plates, and then charge and discharge it several times before selling it as new.
Some may say: "I bought it at a flagship store or official website. It can't be refurbished, but it doesn't feel as durable as the original." In this case, the greater probability is that the battery specifications or parameters are not correct. Choose the right one. For example, if the battery capacity is not as large as before and the starting current is not as high as before, it will give people the impression that the battery is not durable.
Battery matching is a very important task in vehicle design. If the matched battery capacity is too small, it will easily cause problems such as battery feed and difficulty in starting.
It turned out that the car was parked for 2 months without any problems, but the battery was replaced with a new one. The capacity itself is small, and the car will not start after being parked for 40 days. Of course, it is easy for you to think that the original one is better, and you still want the new one. scold.
- It might also be your own fault
Let's change our thinking again. Sometimes, the problem may not be with the battery, but actually with ourselves. For example, I used to get off the car and go home directly after turning off the engine. Now when I get home, I listen to music after turning off the engine and stay in the car for half an hour. "The pressure is too great. The only space that belongs to me is the car. When I come to my senses, I will get up again." Doing this every day will of course affect the battery life.
Using the electrical equipment in the car for a long time with the engine turned off will damage the normal use of the battery and reduce its service life. It is recommended that car owners use electrical equipment for less than 30 minutes when the car is turned off. Of course, if you come here occasionally, the problem with the car won't be that big.
The last possibility is that it may not be that the replacement battery is not durable, but that the original battery is too durable, leading to this "illusion". In other words, if the original battery is really durable and has been used for 6 or 7 years without any problems, even if the replaced battery is still good, we will feel that it is not as good as the original one.
