For my 2019 ford fusion is says the agm battery requires professional installation AGM Valve Regulated Lead Acid VRLA is required, what does this mean?
Why doesn't the formula for calculating Ah's of a battery, work with the 48 AGM @ 760 CCA, 120 RC, 70 Ah...Curious, as some batteries don't list the Ah's for BMS resets.
There's usually a PDF on the manufacturers website for that particular group, the Ah should be listed there. It's typically higher by ~20-30% and they do better with deep cycle.
Been using them for my whole life, I had bought a reconditioned one once that was reverse polarity charged and blew my fuse in my car. They replaced it and refunded me for the fuse and sold me another battery I needed for something else at cost. Really helpful people
I bought a replacement Interstate battery for my Honda Accord at Costco. It died in 4 months. I took car to a garage that sold Interstates and the guy almost went postal. He explained Costco has Interstates made to lower standards and only Costco can do warranty work on their fake Interstates. I did buy a new battery but after owning Interstates for decades, I will never buy another Interstate ever again. You lost a good customer!
Advance Auto pushes their Diehard AGM batteries. If Advance installs your battery, you have to pay $4.00 for the felt anti-corrosion washers. These felt washers are normally $1.00 for 2. No battery warranty if you don't buy them. Advance is grossly overpriced on their batteries at all levels. At Walmart my battery was $100.00 cheaper and a longer warranty. Advance pushes the AGM battery no matter what year of your vehicle. Never again going to Advance Auto.
My first DIE HARD battery I bought in 1982 when I was in the service in Colorado Springs, lasted 7yrs..I guess they just don't make things the way they used to. I haven't see the AGM's lasting much longer than flooded batteries here in Arizona...Lucky to get 2yrs outta one.
I bought 4 1150cca Interstate AGM Batteries for my Semi Truck. I got tired of replacing lead acid batteries every year. I will Update a year from now.
Our truck batteries change every few years
So the AGM is better in almost every way except the price?

I’ve had nothing but trouble and roadside breakdowns from interstate batteries

Too bad and sad Interstate AGM H5 batteries are not made in Germany any longer , but Mexico !
They're more expensive in MX than when they were built in Germany 😢
