Battery

Basically there are 2 (two) types of battery: Dry Battery & Wet Battery.

Dry battery is a massive battery such as common battery using for mobile phone or for radio tape recorder. This type also available for motorcycle or car but in a very limited models and brand. Also its price is 'very' expensive rather than wet battery.

Wet battery is widely using for car. There are three sub types of these battery: common battery, hybrid battery and Maintenance Free (MF) Battery.

Battery is a one of the important things to avoid car get sudden breakdown. Therefor please visually inspect the battery to make sure connections between the cables and terminals are tight and there is no sign of corrosion. When you find something like white powder in the terminals please clean it with hot water and let it be dry before starting the car.

Also please check the water level of the battery regulary. once you find the water is in minimum level, immediately add aquades untill the level reach almost maximum one. Never allow add aquades water exceed maximum level because it could make chemical contents (H2SO4) too liquid and make the battery could not work properly.

Other important thing to maintain the battery always in good condition is minimum one time in a week the car should be started for 5 minutes.

Proper maintenance of the battery could make the battery still in good serve for 3 (three) years.
