3 things that drain your car’s battery

Have you ever experienced having to rush to work and when you try to start your car, the engine just won’t work? What a pain, right? Usually, you’ll have to check which of the thousand things the culprit are. But trust us when we say that most of the time, it’s because of a drained car battery. Really, it seems like our car battery just picks the worst possible times to die out. However, there are a few things you could check every now and then to make sure that you avoid the unnecessary hassle of a drained car battery.

 

Unused energy

Ever experienced forgetting to turn your headlights off? Then, the next morning your car won’t start? Well, it’s because of all the wasted electrical energy that was spent on your lights. Remember to turn them off when you turn off your car.

 

Defective cables

When you don’t maintain or clean your car that much, chances are your battery’s cables might get corroded with dirt or rust. And when they are filled with these, your car will have a hard time to be charged to its fullest capacity. So better bring them in for maintenance every now and then.

 

Old age

Yes, like all things, our car’s battery has a life span. If you think that you’ve had your car battery for a while now, then maybe it’s better to have it replaced to avoid having problems.

 

Make sure to bring these essentials on a day-to-day basis for any type of emergency when it comes to your car battery.
