How many years is the battery life of a family car?

In general, how many years a car battery has been used is as follows:

The normal service life of car batteries is about 2-3 years.

There are two types of batteries for automobiles. One is maintenance-free battery and the other is ordinary battery.

Ordinary batteries are also known as lead-acid batteries. The main advantage of this type of battery is that it is cheap and the voltage is relatively stable. The disadvantages are also obvious and require frequent routine maintenance. It is necessary to check the height of the electrolyte regularly and add distilled water.

Maintenance free battery, it is not necessary to periodically check the height of the electrolyte and add distilled water during the service life. At the same time, it also has many advantages of small size, high temperature resistance and shock resistance. This kind of battery is simple and easy to handle. The downside is that the price is more expensive than a regular battery.

If you want to increase the battery life, you must pay attention to the usual maintenance and care, and do not have the habit of harming the battery. When the battery life expires, it usually feels that the headlights are not lit before, or the car can't fire when the weather is cold. If there is a similar situation, check if it is time to change the battery.

Today, automotive batteries can be broadly classified into maintenance-free and general-purpose batteries (not maintenance-free). Most of the models currently on the market use maintenance-free batteries, and most Japanese cars use non-maintenance batteries, which are ordinary batteries.

A common battery is also called a lead-acid battery, and its electrode is composed of an oxide of lead and lead, and the electrolyte is an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. The main advantage is that the voltage is stable and the price is cheap; the disadvantage is frequent daily maintenance. Old-fashioned ordinary batteries generally have a life span of about 2 years, and it is necessary to regularly check the height of the electrolyte and add distilled water.

Maintenance-free batteries, as the name suggests, are the most maintenance-free. It is basically unnecessary to replenish distilled water during the service life. It also has the characteristics of shock resistance, high temperature resistance, small size and small self-discharge. Of course, its price will be more expensive than ordinary batteries. As for the service life, the recommended replacement period for maintenance-free batteries under normal conditions is about 3 years.

From the point of view of use and maintenance, whether your car is equipped with a maintenance-free battery or an ordinary battery, the normal service life is about 2-3 years, if you use it, it is 3 to 4 years, and the mileage is 6 to 90,000 kilometers. If you feel that you are not getting electricity or the starter is weak, the headlights are obviously darker. You need to take the battery off and charge it with the charger for 12-24 hours. If it still doesn't work, the mileage will reach more than 50,000 kilometers, and the generator is not faulty. You need to consider changing the battery. ,

Battery

Ordinary car batteries use lead-acid batteries, the cycle life is basically 200-500 times, and the service life is about 2-4 years.

The car with automatic start-stop function is equipped with a special battery, the cycle life will be higher, 400-800 times, and the service life is basically 4 years-6 years.

New energy vehicles use lithium batteries for a longer life and can be used for 5-8 years.

Generally, the battery is used while charging, which is equivalent to shallow filling, which is to extend the cycle time.

The cycle life mentioned above refers to the complete use and thorough filling. The ordinary car battery can be charged and discharged 200 times.

These wrong operations will lead to battery life

1. Long-term short-distance driving.

For example, the place where I go to work and the place where I live is very short one kilometer, especially hurting the battery.

Because the engine is started by the starter motor when the car is started, the starter motor is completely powered by the battery. The short distance frequently turned back and forth, the electricity was used up, and the car started, but it was too short when it was opened, and the electricity had not come back. When the battery is used for a long time, it is easy to lose power, and the number of cycles of charging will increase, which will affect the battery life.

2. Start frequently.

The temperature in winter is relatively low, and the battery activity itself is not very good. The first time it can't be sent, it will be sent again. If it is sent several times, the battery will be very hurt. Frequent start-up has a very large impact on the discharge of the battery, and it will also lead to life.

3. The appliance is not turned off before the flameout.

Mainly after the flameout, the headlights forgot to turn off. After many cars are turned off, there is no automatic power-off function. The lights may be lit for the whole night. The next morning, the tragedy will be broken, the door will not open, and the engine will not be able to send.

4. Do not turn off the air conditioner before the flameout.

It is very likely that the next time we start again, the starter and air conditioner with the engine must all be turned on at the same time. When the instantaneous power is relatively high, the battery load will be too large. The problem with the new battery is not big. If it is a classic car, it may be a long life.

5. After the flameout is still using electrical appliances.

For example, after I parked my car for a long time, I received the vacuum cleaner, connected the air pump, listened to the song for two hours, or turned on the headlights, etc., and it was easy to drain the battery and damage the battery.

6. The vehicle will not be used for a long time.

The battery will be naturally discharged. If it is parked for two or three weeks at full power, there will be a loss of power. For more than a month, the battery's power completely releases the maximum battery power, and the lifetime will be greatly reduced.

If the battery is lost or broken, what losses will it have?

1. Money.

To change the battery, the mainstream brand battery price of 60 amps on the market is basically 300-500 yuan.

Car batteries with automatic start and stop function will be more expensive, 1000 oceans can not escape.

2. Hidden accidents.

Before driving, if the battery fails, it may be difficult to start, the light will be dark, the speaker will not ring, etc. These are still minor problems, and you can solve it by driving before driving. I was afraid that the car was half opened, and the battery had a problem, which caused the generator to have a problem. It was very likely that it would turn off the fire, and even the headlights would not be bright. There was a big security risk on the road.

3. Increase fuel consumption.

Starting the engine requires starting the motor, the battery performance is degraded, and the ignition may be successful multiple times. The fuel injectors should also be powered, the oil sprayed, the pressure is unstable, and the ignition of the spark plug will have an impact on fuel consumption. The time will be long and even the mechanical level will cause injury.
