Increasing the lifespan of a car battery is worth the time and effort because you may gain a extra 2-3 years out of your car battery, if you carry out some maintenance work.
*The first thing you should do after a while, is clean you car battery posts, using baking soda as a cleaning substance. To make the battery post cleaning paste, simply get some handy baking soda and warm water and pour both of them into a cup. Stir the substance for about a minute and then dab the paste onto both negative and positive posts on the car battery, using a paint brush. Once the paste is on the posts, leave it on them for about 10 minutes, so it can fight of all the rust and get rid of any corrosion. Then using a toothbrush, scrub the paste rapidly in the posts. Then using a damp cloth wipe the paste off the posts and you have successfully helped increase the life span of your car battery.
*Another tip i suggest is, if your not using you car for a long period of time, remove the battery from the car and place it indoors. Cold weather can seriously do some damage to the car battery, trust me i know.
*Never overcharge your car battery.
*When you are charging you car battery, make sure you don't remove the vent caps. Removing them while charging you car battery, using a car battery charger, will result in the battery water evaporating into the atmosphere.
