What Are the Methods to Extend Battery Life?

[Matthew]

Methods to extend battery life include: 1. Start the car regularly to charge the battery; 2. Add distilled water or special replenishing fluid when electrolyte is insufficient; 3. Frequently check if the small holes on the battery cover are ventilated during daily driving; 4. Regularly inspect the battery's positive and negative terminals for signs of oxidation; 5. Periodically examine all parts of the circuit for aging or short circuits; 6. Turn off electrical devices when leaving the vehicle. The functions of a car battery are: 1. It supplies power to the starting system, ignition system, and electronic fuel injection system when starting the engine; 2. It provides power to the vehicle's electrical devices when the engine is off or idling at low speed; 3. It assists in powering electrical devices when the generator's output is insufficient; 4. It mitigates impact voltage in the electrical system, protecting the vehicle's electronic equipment; 5. It stores excess electricity generated by the alternator.
