my civics Exide 65 amp battery had a dead cell the car wasnt cranking just tik tik. Got it replaced with an AGS 65 a which was worth 4800 rs the old battery was bought back for 1000. Previously I just used to leave the battery thinking of it would be of no use.

90% of your old Lead Acid Battery is recycled into a brand new battery.
Old lead acid batteries are purchased by junk yard owners @ 90 to 110 /kg.......Electrolyte is spilled out before taking weight of battery.65A battery weighs almost 10kg,
so they recycle it after smelting not just re using it
its a massive buisness in pakistan
you talking about battery did you know the old oil which you leave at garage after an oil change is worth 50-70 rs per liter dirty oil .
Really? :o I didn't knew it... can you tell what they do with it? recycle it too? As I though they use it to lubricate stuff.
What a surprise to have similar thread, for what I was thinking while buying a new battery few hours back.
The dealer took my old AGS for 4K.
New one for 16.5K - 4K = 12.5K for 200 amp AGS
Both old and new same amps.
Yes they recycle it and than sell as khula oil for around rs 120 to 150 per liter. you can get recycled oil from oil stores.

All battery shops buy old batteries, find junk yard, scrap yard near by your location, u can sell there also.What amp are the batteries??? which brand??

Don't throw away your used lead acid batteries (wet or dry) these can be sold back to authorized company dealers for good price. They send these back to the manufacturing plant where lead and other parts are recycled for making new batteries. This is the standard practice around the world.
Bhai for lubrication a little oil is used not the cans of several liters. They keep it and sell it back to manufacturer or some other "khula Mobil oil" manuafcturer.
volta 175 weighs almost 28kg 28x98=2744x2=5488ags cae battery 700 to 1000 depending upon weight
