I know battery threads are a dime a dozen on here but I'm really stuck between these two brands and could use some real world feedback before I spend my money. I've run Amaron batteries in two previous cars and got about three and a half years out of each which seems decent for the price point, but a colleague keeps telling me to switch to Solite claiming he got nearly five years out of his last one. The price difference isn't huge but if the longevity is actually better I'd rather go with the longer lasting option obviously. Looking specifically at a warranty-backed Solite battery Sharjah from a supplier that actually honors the warranty, which from what I've read on other threads seems to be the mobile service that everyone's been recommending on here lately. My question is for people who've used both brands, ideally in similar cars over a similar time period, did you notice any meaningful difference in how they held up especially during the brutal July and August months? I drive a pretty basic Honda Civic with no extra electrical load, so I'm not stressing the battery with aftermarket accessories or anything like that. Also curious about the cold cranking amps in real world terms, the Solite specs look similar to the Amaron on paper but sometimes the numbers don't tell the whole story when you're trying to start the car on a surprisingly chilly December morning. Just trying to make an informed decision rather than flipping a coin.
