Probe vs Raylite / Excide battery's

[Fox1]

Which car battery would be better to get? I currently have a Raylite that's lasted me 5 years which is starting to suck at cold starts and needs replacing. Also, do you still get SABAT batteries in Durban?

Raylite, only because it is more popular than Probe, but I think it does not make too much of a difference, I once had an Ecco battery that I bought for less than R500 at some Chinese shop, lasted me for years, probably 4 to 5 years. I am currently driving on some no name battery, still going strong after two years.

The only reason I'm tending to want the Probe battery is it has the built-in charge indicator.

I am sure, you should be able to get a Sabat battery in Durban.

Get a Varta if you can even if it's a bit more expensive, mine lasted just over eight years.

Autozone still keep them.
