What to Consider When Purchasing Quality Car Batteries

 Purchasing automobile spare parts comes with the risk of getting a fake. In order not to make the mistake of purchasing an inferior car battery, you must understand some facts and what to look out for when purchasing a new car battery.

                      

Below are things to keep in mind before you purchase any car battery.

§Power Requirement

This refers to the power required to start a vehicle and this differs in most cases because different vehicles require different battery power requirements and there must be prior and essential knowledge about the type of vehicle in other not to purchase a car battery with less power (amp) than required. 

§Terminal Type and Position

This is very important to check because the positive and negative terminal placement varies for different cars. In order to avoid wrong terminal placements, make sure that you buy car battery with a correct terminal (red is positive) and check if the battery is firmly tightened.

§Battery Capacity (Ah)

This simply refers to the amount of power (capacity) the battery can store. When you get a battery and it has a higher Amp hour (Ah) it means that the battery can maintain a charge load for a long time, so there is less chance of the battery being exhausted.

§Battery size

You can easily find out what battery size you need by checking your vehicle owner's manual or consulting your mechanic because the right battery size will fit perfectly into the battery tray, hold the battery in place, and prevent damage to the battery due to vibration during car movement.

                            

§Battery Newness

To know how new the battery you want to purchase is, it is indicated by a code on the battery which consists of letters and numbers. The letters represent the month while the numbers represent the year the battery was manufactured.

Note: You should never buy a battery that is more than six months old from the date of manufacture.

§ Battery Reserve capacity

This means the amount of time the battery can run on its own without an engine and before discharge. Purchasing a premium car battery at 9jabizz.com with high reserve capacity will help the car in tough situations such as engine out-of-compliance, alternator failure, and unexpected lights on.

§ Warranties

It is good to purchase a car battery with a warranty because this gives you an assurance of getting a replacement if the battery develops a fault within a specified period of time.
