Need advice on 12v battery

virajn · February 10, 2019

I have 2014 Honda GP5. Currently car have original battery they shipped with. Battery voltage ( as I have checked in two different places) shows 14v and guys recommend to run several months. When running in Colombo voltage shows 12.7v. is it normal to drop voltage when running and how much it should show? I'm worried one morning I might find all the warning in dashboard. Could someone recommend good place to replace battery ? ( Who can make sure all the battery parameters are met in new battery as I don't know about batteries at all )

Recommend you get the charging system checked first. The charging system should be at 14 to 14.5 at idle .with no load.

get a battery scan done,cost only 100rupees. It will check not only the voltage,but also ability to hold charge (CCA) against the original specifications.
