When purchasing cost effective items one of the unfortunate, as well as unforeseen, problems can be the time we invest trying to get something resolved if the item fails during the warranty period. My time is worth x$$$s per hour therefore I have little time to contend with some trivial cost savings when it comes to specific items, the battery is one of those items. Before purchasing a cost effective item perhaps one needs to consider how much their personal time is worth $$ In the unlikely event you to need exchange the item during the warranty period does investing more of your valuable time make cents?
I totally agree. If this where a Ford Escort forum, I would say do the best you can to survive, and my best wishes go with you. This happens to be an MB forum, however, so I say if you can't afford a decent battery, you shouldn't be driving a Mercedes.
