How Many Years Can a Passat Battery Last?
1 Answers
Passat batteries generally last between 3 to 6 years. The lifespan of a battery depends on factors such as the vehicle's condition, configuration, and driving habits. To maximize the battery's lifespan, in addition to using a battery life extender in parallel to prevent and remove sulfation, it is also important to avoid deep discharge and maintain proper charge to prevent softening of the battery's positive plates. Here is some relevant information about car batteries: 1. Introduction: A car battery, also known as a storage battery, is a type of battery that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. Typically, the term 'battery' refers to lead-acid batteries, which are mainly made of lead and its oxides, with a sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. 2. Working Principle: It uses lead plates filled with sponge lead as the negative electrode, lead plates filled with lead dioxide as the positive electrode, and a 22-28% dilute sulfuric acid solution as the electrolyte. During charging, electrical energy is converted into chemical energy, and during discharging, chemical energy is converted back into electrical energy.
