What is the difference between an auto start-stop battery and a regular battery?
1 Answers
The differences between an auto start-stop battery and a regular battery: 1. Service life: The dedicated start-stop battery for vehicles can endure more charge-discharge cycles and has a longer lifespan, typically over 6 years, which is 3-8 times that of a regular battery. Its plates are harder than those in regular batteries, preventing active material from easily detaching, making it suitable for vehicles with start-stop systems. Regular batteries usually last about 2 years. 2. Battery capacity: Start-stop batteries have larger capacity and can charge/discharge rapidly. Conventional lead-acid batteries cannot handle multiple high-current discharges in short periods as their separators don't allow rapid ion passage. 3. Price: Start-stop batteries employ stamping technology with higher technical requirements, and the elevated production costs result in higher overall prices for these units.
