What Affects Car Battery Life in Canberra
Understanding these factors helps prevent premature battery failure
Extreme Canberra Climate
Extreme heat increases water evaporation from battery cells, while cold weather slows chemical reactions. Canberra’s temperature extremes are particularly hard on car batteries.
Infrequent Vehicle Use
Short trips don’t allow the alternator to fully recharge the battery. Daily repetition of this cycle steadily reduces battery voltage until it can no longer start the car.
Faulty Charging System
A faulty alternator that doesn’t output 13.5-14.5 volts will drain the battery while driving. This is especially problematic when using lights, radio, and other electrical accessories.
