Battery Energizer or OEM Mercedes

Funny enough I also have an 18 Elantra and had my battery replaced recently from Costco. What I got was a:

- H6-AGM

- 760/120/70 cold crank amps/reserve capacity/amp hours respectively

Recently i was able to acquire some Japanese Energizer 2300 and 800mAh AA and AAA batteries...from my experience with the Energizers so far they are much much better then any other NiMH battery I've ever used including the Chinese Panasonic NiMH batteries.

I have the Energizer battery in mine. It's worked perfectly so far. The included posts are plug and play with the i3 terminals.

So now I will only use Energizer and Sanyo/Panasonic Eneloop bateries I use these rechargable ones in more expensive devices as they do not leek but have had great success with energizer and their max alkaline bateries both stored and in devices and none have leaked.

I have a snap-on torque wrench and duracell keeps doing that, I switched over to energizer and it stopped.

This just happened to me last month on my 2017 C43 on the OEM battery. I guess five years is typical on these newer MB.

I had same issue with energizer batteries both lasted exactly 14 months. Luckily battery came with18 months warranty so in total they lasted 28 months.

I started using Energizer a few years ago after EVERY SINGLE DURACELL BATTERY in a 24-pack I bought corroded just as badly as the 1st battery on the left in your picture! This was regardless of whether the battery was in a device like a clock that was always running, in a device that is used when needed like my flashlight, or stored in my home office.

I’ve had it 3.5 years and it just started doing the “Stop Vehicle Leave Engine Running” thing about a month ago.

Exactly the same issue I am currently facing with a month old GLC300. No resolution yet
