Hi Sifus, :wavey:
I not sure what is the correct way to tell if a battery is new and has what the spec says.
1. there is a sticker on the battery showing the specs. But it seems it can be peeled off and stick with any sticker.
2. after choosing a battery, i walked over to the other side of the workshop. Then the service personnel brought a battery over and installed it into the bay. I asked if its a new one. He showed me plastic terminal caps removed from it. But i did not see it 1st hand the removal.
The terminals looked like new as there were no scratches on the sides.
3. Is there a serial number on the battery for tracing? Do workshops record them?
I suppose beginners like me may not know how experts like yourselves ensure you get what you paid for in a new battery.
Hope to get some pointers.
sincerely
Richard
