What you need to know before replacing your start-stop battery

Before you begin replacing your start-stop battery, there are a few things to consider

I have Permanently disabled the god damn Stop-Stop, I hope I can replace the AGM with a Wet Cell when it needs replacement. If I have to keep the AGM, perhaps a smaller version.

For my 2019 ford fusion is says the agm battery requires professional installation AGM Valve Regulated Lead Acid VRLA is required, what does this mean?

Great video and very informative! I got recently a vehicle with stop/start and was intimidated by the tech jargon. It seems these batteries aren't rocket science, though. I am familiar with AGMs and lithium tech which is far more advanced. I suspect my car has a large parasitic draw as it drains EFB battery overnight, so the engine barely starts and it seems the load gets stronger and stronger every day! I even needed to jump start it at some point. I disconnect battery for now when leaving the car for longer until I get it sorted. Two load testers reported battery is in a good health and I can see alternator generates charge. I wish it didn't take a few deep discharge hits, but I will check its age.

How do you know if your battery needs to be registered?

Best advice is to use an insulated socket set unlike the one used on the video to avoid nasty accidents…
