    Sealed and proprietary is a problem with anything, and I hate it, but I don’t think the battery is normally the problem. They out last the rest of the car from what I’m seeing. There are people are using them for second life stuff.

      from what ive been seeing on phones and other consumer electronics, batteries are the most disposable part on anything.

      they generally have a shorter expected lifespan than any other component, not sure about cars but i would not bet on it outlasting many other parts
