UPdate - new battery and bluetooth 12v monitor installed last Monday night, all good since then including one day with 40 miles of driving and recharging in weather well below freezing (16 to 28 F), but I happen to be mostly driving other cars the rest of the time since.

FYI, altho I ordered from Remy, the sticker on the battery I received says [Deka Intimidator EHP](https://remybattery.com/batteries/brand/deka-intimidator-batteries.html?srsltid=AfmBOorxsFi7eoMbizQPDMsF1q-32WuvMxLPyiLSgftX8ExWmqHWSfq4). IDK if there's any functional difference - it seems to have the exact same terminal connections as the OEM BMW battery it replaced.

Also FWIW, despite no indicator on the shipping box for 'this side up' and it clearly getting Ace-Ventura'd around by FedEx, it did not leak or show any signs of damage inside the shipping box. It was well padded with foam made to fit the battery and fill the entire shipping box. So far I'm happy and the car seems to be too.

Pros: happy with new battery
Vehicle: BMW

Eco Battery

I put the Eco 105 in my Tempo and I love it. You’ll pay more than the Chinese ones on Amazon but I think it is worth it.

Pros: I love it
Cons: pay more

OEM Hyundai Battery

I’ve had a Hyundai Kona EV for 6 years now. I live in Kelowna BC where we get cold winters (-20C) and warm summers (+40C).

My Kona gets about 375-425 km range in dead of winter. It gets 475-525km range in summer. These values are the same now as they were 6 years ago when I bought it

It has a 64KwH battery. I have a level 2 charger in my garage (I put a 30amp dryer plug in the wall) my charger is programmed to charge over night 12am - 6am. That’s when I pay the least for power. Between $.09 - $.15 KwH

I drive around 100km each day or maybe 12-15KwH. Cost me between $1.08 - $2.25 each day to charge it. Max per month is around $70.00

If it was gas it would cost me about $250 -$300/month. I figure I’ve saved, over the last 6 years a minimum of $13,000.00 on fuel costs.

Don’t forget no oil changes, no break jobs (still

Original brakes in mint condition, regenerative brake system)

Pros: regenerative brake system, fuel costs savings
Vehicle: Hyundai

OEM Volvo Battery

I\u2019ve owned an S60 T8 for 2 and a half years now. Like others have said Volvo PHEVs deplete the battery first by default before touching the gas engine.

Pros: deplete battery first
Vehicle: Volvo S60

SAMSUNG Battery

I would say the battery use on my S9+ is between 12-15% per hour, depending on the use scenario. Quite close to you, it seems.

It is a bit worse than I expected (coming from a Galaxy Tab s5e, which had unreal battery for its age), but everything is super fast, so not bothered too much with it. And the battery is still better than on my laptop, so it is quite useful when talking about some note-taking, e-mails and browsing tasks outside of home.

I noticed that some activities and apps (e.g., note-taking on Samsung Notes) take more battery than I hoped, but it is what it is.

Edit: Forgot to add, settings are maxed out, 120hz, bluetooth on, S Pen used constantly and charged from tablet, etc.

Pros: super fast, useful
Cons: battery worse than expected

OEM BMW Battery

I’m not satisfied with the range (70 miles) or the charging speed (max 19.2 kW via J-1772, taking 4 to 13 hours to charge) of the BMW batteries in my Lion Type C electric school bus.

Cons: poor range, slow charging speed
