  • Outsmart Your Car With Humble & Rogue | What is an AGM Battery, and what makes it different than a standard battery? Is it worth the cost? With twice the capacity of standard flooded car batteries, AGM (absorbed glass mat) batteries charge faster and are created specifically for vehicles with higher power requirements, such as hybrid cars with fuel-saving start-stop features, or possibly even some cars with high-tech features such as dash cameras and remote starting systems. Charles and Rich explain the importance of an AGM car battery in terms of car maintenance.

    I don't drive my car enough for a standard battery to stay healthy so AGM was recommended to me as it will handle less driving better. You can always just hook a battery maintainer up to a car to keep the battery happy and stick with a standard one. Once a standard battery drops to 0% it will start dying and be a risk.
    Ive been told the AGM can better handle dropping to that 0% and recharging with less damage so i got one. $249 but better than having to jumpstart because i didnt feel like driving much for a month. 1:49

    Ok. AGM batteries are higher capacity. How do you charge it?

    • @robs_garage0278
      @robs_garage0278 Год назад +2

      with a special agm battery charger but a regular battery charger works too but agm batterys usally take 24 hours to fully charge

      Better suited for cars that require a lot of electronics compared to the norm which are usually hybrids or trucks like ram trucks, agm is good for start/stop vehicles since it is able to recharge quicker than a normal battery which allows that feature to keep on working

    Well my car sits for a while before I start it. I live on NYC and don't go out much, lead acid batteries drain much faster, So the technology in these batteries are great for cars parked longer times.
    Also I run a 24/7 front and rear dash cams on my vehicle, which deplete the battery till about 12.4 Volts before shutting down the consumption for the dash cam. This battery would beore helpful in the demanding power of the dash cam?
    If I read the owners Manual, it will not mention anything about me needing an AGM battery because in 2003 Infiniti Trucks and most vehicles we're not equiped with this Technology. So reading the manual won't tell me Crap about what battery best suits my needs in this present day and age. Especially when we are adding all kinds of electronics to our vehicles, even needing more powerful Alternators etc. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      Nah, I have 3 cars live in a Private House, the parking spot in front of my house is in-between two driveways, the only thing that fits there is a small Mini Cooper. I park my car in that spot and block my own driveway.
      Honestly lots of people in NYC don't drive their cars much probably on the weekends more and because I have 3 cars, we use the newer Infiniti more on the weekends. I'm keeping the 03 "20 Years Old" to be my classic as the world is moving towards electric cars.
      You're right about people not moving their cars in NYC. I would rather not have a car if I didn't have my own house. It's crazy to pay off a car sitting there and pay insurance and worry about swapping your car 4 times a week because of an alternate side parking scam the city has, designed to give out tickets and not really keep the streets clean.

    Great video and explanation. I am going to buy a AGM battery if my 2001 BMW 530i battery ever fails. I am using a PulseTech PowerPulse passive battery desulfator on it to keep it working longer, Pulse Tech states that there patented frequency used to desulfate a battery can extend battery life by up to three times.

    Do AGM batteries have slightly higher voltage? (Like say 13 V+ instead of just 12 or 12.5 V?)
    Thank you.

    • @chaptersawaiting6787
      @chaptersawaiting6787 Год назад +2

      I bielive that they do still have the same voltage as a traditional FLA battery but they are easier to overcharge.

  • @Hopeless_and_Forlorn
    @Hopeless_and_Forlorn 2 года назад +3

    I think I am getting gaslighted here. Dash cams draw miniscule currents, especially in the parked mode. As far as hybrids go, they usually do not even have starter motors. The high voltage drive battery starts the engine by powering one of the motor-generators. My Camry hybrid is almost five years old and I have never even seen or thought about the 12v battery in it.

      @damon20r 2 года назад

      If it isn't staying charged it isn't a battery problem. Either the car charging system or a drain when the car is off.

    My car battery keeps dying. Owner's manual says use a 60amp EFB100 battery.
    Dealer says battery is fine, just drive more.
    I fitted an AGM096 70amp battery. Problem solved.
    Screw the manual. Fit the biggest battery possible.
