Also, applying di-electric grease on battery terminals, will help keep moisture away and reduce corrosion.

Nice information..another 2 points... Heat and short trips are a battery killer as well. Cars with a battery outside the engine bay ( trunk or under the seat) usually get longer battery life.
Or you can put a silver covering around the battery to reduce radiant heat. It will help keep battery internal temperatures lower over time. I measured battery surface after driving for about 1.5 hours and the hottest point closest to the engine was 80C. After the silver covering it was 50C. And pop the hood when you return home to let the heat out to reduce battery heat soak.

Short trips don't allow the battery to come back to full charge after each engine start. To help with that, put the battery on a smart float charger periodically to keep the battery topped up. If you get one with a desuIfator, that would be better. I usually do mine once weekly but you could probably do it less frequently.. Like once a fortnight or a month.

Do not add water to battries where u can see white matts between plates and no visible water. Besure it's a flooded cell.
And if u are changing the battery. It's better to replace it with the largest that can fit on the battery tray. Like for my etios the original battery was 35ah and 350cca.
Which died after 4yrs (normal for oem battery). I replaced it with the largest amaron that had the same connector layout and most importantly fit inside the hood and battery tray. Which turned out to be a 50ah and 435cca . It's working fine for almost 6-7yrs now. Another way to prolong battery & engine life is do not turn the engine off at traffic stops . The amount of fuel saved does not come close to the amount u would have to spend on maintenance of the engine from regular stop start.. many i have seen shut the engine off at red light and as soon as it turns green they start the car and immediately step on the throttle and accelerate. It's one of the worst things u can do to an engine specially when it's cold it takes 2-3 seconds for the oil pressure to come up and flow . Putting any sort of load on a dry engine causes excess wear on bearings and cylinders.
1-2min traffic stop won't consume 5₹ of fuel. While frequent starting and stopping specially in city doesn't leave the battery much time to charge. At idle the alternator doesn't make enough current to bring the voltage up. And at city traffic u won't have the engine running at more than 1500rpm for long. If do that it will eat your fuel economy. And that's why occasionally driving on the highway is good for the car and engine to have a constant load on it for 1hr or more. It also removes a lot of carbon deposits.

Great info.

Yesterday I checked the water level after seeing your video and I had to fill over 700 ml of water to the 6 cells of my Amaron for my Ritz diesel.

Is that normal? (last checked my battery level 1 year ago)

We are selling battery life enhancer, buy one and connect and leave it, the enhancer will avoid salt formation, the life of batter can be extended upto 3 times, interested can connect.
