Winter is here, weak batteries will do their thing and it seems like a good time to bring this up.
No start the other morning, probably in the 20's, the battery finally went in my Maxima.
Tested the voltage, 12.7 volts, noticed the date of 05/2007 on the side and just had a feeling it was toast. Duralast brand, standard 2 year battery, 35-DL was the part number on the top.
Removal was simple, no issues.
Trip to Autozone, battery tested bad, time to replace. I noticed there was an optional battery size, a 24F-DL.
Time for comparison -
The 24F-DL is a little longer, ever so slightly narrower, heavier (almost 5 pounds), offers 100 more CCA and 30 additional reserve capacity minutes for less money ($8.00) than the 35-DL.
Dropped right in, perfect fit, no issues.
Something to consider if you are looking at batteries - look at the alternatives, sometimes you can get more for less!
