Battery Tesla or Duracell

I've had good results from East Penn Duracell at Sam's Club. I just replaced one nearly 8 years old.

The best way to check is to go with a multimeter and get the highest voltage/closest manufactured date. Duracell might just be EverStart rebranded BUT NO the Walmart battery will last around 1-2 years, maybe less. If you want to make sure your covered with a good battery, that’s when you go to Advance Auto or AutoZone and get the battery with 3 years of warranty and swap it out right before the 3rd year ends and I find the batteries last me forever.

The best lead acid type of battery is a Duracell/East Penn hybrid/house AGM deep cell. These have thicker plates and are typically used for RVs and boats. They can tolerate deeper discharge and are less susceptible to damage (AGM). They sacrifice a little instantaneous current output, but that's not needed on an EV.

We’ve always had luck with Duracell in our cars.

I'm going to turn 230k miles on my 2018 model 3 tomorrow. The only time it has been to a service center is when the 12v battery died on a road trip. Other than that, I've put tires on it. I'm at about 21% degradation but everything still runs as it should. I'm hoping to get to 300k miles on the original battery.

Warranty: side repeater, spoiler, battery (at 82k)

After 3 years, my Tesla Model 3’s battery range dropped about 7 to 15 percent, which seems pretty typical based on what others report. It isn’t catastrophic, but it is definitely noticeable for anyone doing longer trips.

Knowing what I know now I would. My 2021 was built in July 2021 and about a year ago my car bricked on me and wouldn\u2019t start. I had zero warning ahead of time.

people are saying no, but i 100% would. one of my model 3s warned me in advanced, but the other died with no warning in a parking lot. the battery is only $85 from tesla service if you install yourself, you can pickup without an appointment. i personally change mine every 2 1/2 years now because they die at 3 years for me

Yes. Mine was from 2020 and quit without warning March of this year. Contrary to what some people have said, the car won\u2019t always warn you that the battery is weak.
