Battery YUASA or Duracell

Yuasa builds a damn fine battery. The one in my C14 is still hanging in there after 6 years.

Yuasa is the good stuff. It's all I'll use in my bikes.

My battery was the [factory one from 2007], changed it in 2023. Couldn't find a replacement Varta back then and had to choose fast, so I picked Yuasa (Japanese brand) and it's working good till now.

I bought a shorter mobility scooter battery with same chemistry as the original, YUASA REC36-12, however the polarity was reversed. I extended the negative pole and installed it without an issue and car came back to normal.

I ended up going to batteries plus, getting a Duracell battery that they installed and warranty for 3 years ago for about $300.

Nice hack. I have a Yuasa that will be 13 years old this year and still going.

I put in an 850 cca 800 amp battery and the old one (Duracell or something I think) I replaced was a 900cca battery. Old one was h8. I replaced with an h7 because thats what fcp euro said was the right size for my car. That was the issue. Took it out and replaced with and H8 and it was still in limp mode! Got my code reader out and cleared the codes and restarted and everything works great now

How's the Duracell Vs the oem? I have 6 battery to buy (2 per pack) for a similar ups (1300va from apc with same lcd).

Unfortunately have to disagree about Yuasa, This 2018 battery is not the same as what you will get as a replacement from Yuasa today. I think they moved manufacturing from Taiwan and the quality has fell. My last two DRZ400 batteries were Yuasa and they didnt last 2 years. Even with tender on for the few months I didnt ride the bike.

I bought a Yuasa battery from AutoPro, and they told me it comes with a 2-year warranty. After about one and a half years, the battery almost completely died. I had it tested and was told it was dead and needed replacement.
