Yuasa YBX5054 Standard Battery

This is the best battery brand you'll buy and here's how...

This battery was fitted to my 2005 1st generation Toyota bB to replace its original battery, which had only just failed after 15 years, 184000 Kilometres and a generally hard, start-stop daily routine in its native Japan.
I'd probably have been on that O/E battery still, had not Covid (me, not the bB...) seen my car laid up from mid March 'til mid August, which saw that factory fitted battery - a Yuasa exactly the same as this one - die as every cell failed, eventually meaning that the potential had dropped to 2 Volts! Yes, that's only one cell still working.
So, after fifteen years of utterly reliable service, buying a replacement battery of exactly the same make and type seemed like a good plan.
There may be a variety of alternative battery brands that would have done the job, but only the Yuasa was so sensibly priced and came with the smaller posts required for many Japanese cars, saving me the hassle of changing the original terminals on the car, but also supplied with sleeves so that this battery could also be used in Euro / UK spec cars, which will be handy once my 1967 mini project car reaches the stage in its rebuild at which a battery is to be fitted.
Meanwhile, I see no reason to doubt that this Yuasa will last far beyond its 4 year warranty period, by which time I'll be far too old to care.
Oh, and buying from the same supplier from whom mine came is also recommended as I'd no sooner completed the order than the DPD van had pulled up outside, its driver carrying a large, well packed cardboard box.
Buy Yuasa, it makes sense and doesn't cost much for the quality you'll get.
👍👍👍👍👍

Best battery by far

Best battery ever, at a very good price, and very happy with this Yuasa battery, they really do make the best battery's- 5 year warranty with it proves this. Has a window view on top of it, green for good, and some other colour for recharge and one for had it !!!! to see condition of battery which is really useful.

Not all battery's are the same, they may be similar, but not the same. Yuasa make battery's for all sorts of things and are a big name in a shrinking world. They make motorbike batterys as OE, and last far longer than other makes.

recommend to all, buy it, try it, love it, what's not to like !!!!Read full review

DOES THE JOB.

It has been a good choice, plenty of power to turn the starter.They even supply adapters to convert the small japanese terminals to standard,they are located in the terminal plastic protectors,so don`t throw them away. Have checked with a digital readout, it is holding its charge very well. The battery came quickly, well packed ,with no leakage .Very pleased with my purchase,and the price.Read full review

Happy with this make of battery

Bought it a few months ago and installed it. Good so far. Have used a cheaper model but same make of battery and was happy with that so hopefully this better model is more impressive.
