In that posture, with your feet flat on the floor, lift your right leg and place the ankle on the opposite knee. Reverse and repeat to stretch the muscle. Piriformis exercises also can be done lying flat on the floor, arms outstretched with palms facing the floor. Positioned about a foot from the wall, completely extend your legs and rest your heels against the wall. At that angle, rest one ankle against the opposite knee, just as in the sitting position.
Batteries, whether lead acid wet cells, AGMs or Gel should last at least five years. My Interstate deep cycle batteries are warrantied for seven. Now this supposes that you properly maintain them, and the number one reason for early battery failure is lack of, or improper maintenance. This is especially true of AGMs.
Edmunds points out that most automakers claim their hybridsâ battery packs will last a good 10 years or more. Edmunds adds that there are a great many hybrid taxis in large metropolitan areas that have logged well beyond 150,000 miles without replacing the battery. But according to the Times, once youâve passed the 5-year mark or youâve racked up more than 100,000, you probably should begin budgeting for battery replacement.
