What is the original battery model for the Magotan?
2 Answers
The original battery model for the Magotan is 6-QW-70. The Magotan uses a Fengfan 12v70AH battery, with the model number 6-QW-70. The standard charging current is "one-tenth of the ampere-hour, 13 hours," which can be understood as the battery capacity being 20AH, with a charging current of 2A for 13 hours. Additional information: 1. The battery is an essential part of a car and can be divided into traditional lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free batteries. 2. If a battery is left unused for a long time, it will slowly discharge on its own until it becomes unusable. Therefore, the car should be started periodically to charge the battery. Another method is to disconnect the two electrodes from the battery. It is important to note that when removing the positive and negative electrode cables from the terminal posts, the negative cable should be disconnected first, or the connection between the negative terminal and the car chassis should be removed. 3. The designed lifespan of a battery is 27 months. For general family use, the battery is more economical, and new car batteries can often last 3-4 years. However, after the first replacement, the battery generally needs to be replaced every 2 years or so. Taxis are more demanding on batteries, with single-shift taxis lasting a little over a year and double-shift taxis lasting around 8-10 months.
The Passat I drive was purchased a few years ago, and I remember the original battery was a Varta 60Ah model, specifically something like L2-400 or similar labeled on the side tag of the battery. After using the car for over a year, one winter morning it wouldn't start, and upon inspection, it was found that the battery had aged and needed replacement. Model matching is crucial—the size must fit precisely into the engine compartment slot; neither too big nor too small will do. After replacing it with a non-original cheaper option, the startup response was sluggish, and it was only resolved by purchasing the OEM equivalent part as suggested in the manual. In summary, the Passat typically comes with this standard capacity battery, so it's wise to note down the model during routine maintenance to avoid being caught off guard in emergencies.
