New Battery Choice and Tips After Install

Purchased Duralast Platinum 24F 710/885 CCA
$200. 3 year warranty . Autozone. Nice looking battery. Cool rigid handle.
I’m glad I was able to preemptively swap out the 8 year old original Panasonic battery.
Peace of mind.

It’s nice to know that swapping batteries can potentially cause these issues. There is a tool out there (battery pack maybe) that lets you keep all of your setting when you change the battery. A cheap version would be a set of jumper cables, a spare battery and a buddy. Loosen the lugs just enough to get them off, hook up the cables between the spare and the cars cables prior to pulling the cables off. Remove cables drop in the new battery, put the cables back on, remove jumper cables, tighten everything thing up. It should work without any problems I’d skip the pre-beer as there is a potential to damage things if you aren’t careful.
