The battery come in at N50, N50Z and NS70 for the bigger sizes, rated at 50amp, 60 amp and 65 amp respectively
Moreover there is the normal battery and the MF battery.
I just got a NS70 MF Century battery for RM230 and can trade in old battery for RM25....

i don't really know battery much, but the guy told me that it's a 55 or 50volt or watt battery(i forgot). i thought it's too much but i was in a rush, so i had no choice but to change it. Please tell me if it's too much for it because i can still go back to the shop to argue for refund for the difference

Wau lau eh ! RM230 for MF Century NS70 & some more can trade in for another RM25 . It's a really good buy then
Last year around June / July check around for Century NS70 MF , the price was about above RM300 as I can remember . In the end settled for MF Road Master NS70 for around RM220 after trade in the old one . Most properly next month or so will be scouting for a new battery again . BTW have the price of battery drop much compare to early /middle of last year ? What's the average market price for a MF NS70 nowadays ?
PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! PATIENCE !!! IT'LL GET YOU THE BEST WHEN TIME IS RIGHT AND SO WILL BE THE PRICE

different brand different price, even in different area/place, it is different price, therefore it is best you check the price with some shops near your place to compare.....
