How Long Can a Reconditioned Battery Last?
1 Answers
Reconditioned batteries can last between 6 to 12 months. Currently, lead-acid batteries on the market are categorized into three types: brand-new batteries, recycled batteries, and reconditioned batteries, with brand-new and reconditioned batteries being the most common. The differences between reconditioned car batteries and new batteries are as follows: 1. Battery Nature: Reconditioned batteries refer to recycled, repaired, and reused batteries (of lower grade), commonly known as refurbished batteries. New batteries, as the name suggests, are original new batteries sold and installed directly by the manufacturer. 2. Battery Warranty: The warranty for reconditioned batteries typically ranges from 12 to 15 months. If the battery has quality issues during this period, the manufacturer will replace it with another reconditioned battery. In contrast, new batteries come with a warranty of up to 8 months, and if they fail within this period, the manufacturer will replace them with a brand-new battery. 3. Battery Performance: Reconditioned car batteries, whether in terms of capacity or overall performance, are inferior to new batteries. Reconditioned batteries are essentially batteries that have been repaired after reaching their second-stage failure time, and the lead inside is not purified again, which naturally affects the battery's performance.
