What makes for a good replacement battery?

Changing a car battery is a relatively simple process. Nevertheless, it helps to know a few things about batteries first. Look for a replacement battery that;

  • Meets or exceeds the Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) rating recommended in your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
  • Will sit properly in the battery tray. If it doesn’t fit properly, the battery will likely get damaged from too much vibration.
  • Provides the largest-possible capacity, especially if you drive in the extreme cold. This is when it comes to winter driving in Elora. The more the temperature drops below zero, the less effective a battery usually is. If a typical battery is operating at 100% of its cranking power at 27ºC, by the time you get down to -18ºC, it will have lost about 40% of its power, even if it was fully charged.
  • Has a sufficient Reserve Capacity (RC). The RC determines how long accessories can run while leaving enough power to start the engine.

The paradoxes of modern batteries

Today’s vehicles are more efficient than they’ve ever been, but they’re also a lot harder on batteries than older vehicles were. This is due to their high number of internal systems. It’s prudent to schedule regular maintenance to keep your battery and your vehicle’s electronic functions in working order.

Furthermore, while batteries’ cranking power decreases in colder temperatures, warm temperatures are also hard on batteries. Extra heat, air conditioning, and stressful conditions for engines wear on batteries just as much as extreme cold temperatures.
