Battery Energizer or OEM Volkswagen

Duracell lasted 18 months on my RMR 3.25 Type 2 on auto setting, Energizer lasted 23 months on same setting!

Having ran both Duracell procell, and Energizer lithiums in RMR's, the energizers last 3+ years. I've gotten 2-2.5 years out of Duracell.

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

I have seen some test results on ID3 after 100000 km and still everything is quite good on the car. Battery is not damaged like on a cellphone if that is your worry.

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.

My golf 2010 VW dashboard ****s down but car remains running. When it don't start take out the battery touch the two cables together with out the battery. For 15 seconds to reboot the car and it starts back.

On a Jetta, it will leave you stranded, and it being a VW, the symptoms will be nothing like a dead battery, most likely.

This is the worst battery i tried, Enegizer lasted less than a year, maybe around 6 months only and it started dying.

It's not only Energizer, its also whatever cheap brand I have. Might be a law, I think.

I do hate them, either cutting your fingers or have the cell fly out like a chemical saucer.
