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've had my Mach E for about four years and nearly 100k miles. I've never worried about the 80% charging and always charged to 100%. I can't tell a huge difference in the range after four years.
Nice hack. I have a Yuasa that will be 13 years old this year and still going.
Mine did this around 30k miles. The battery was swollen and definitely the problem, but all battery scanners showed that it was good
In keeping my 07 f150 xl long bed regular cab till my feet go through the floor and I gotta push it up the exit ramps.
I met a guy with a 25, trying to get a replacement battery that has to be done at the dealership.
A $80k truck that you're basically renting from Ford because of all the gatekeeping software crap- and most of it experimental with the buyers being the test market.
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.
