BATTERIES
Worried about your battery this winter? Come on in and we'll test it free of charge.
A Car Battery has two functions:-
The AH of a battery is a universally recognised unit of measurement and can be compared across manufacturers. It is a measure of the amount of charge that a battery can hold. The Higher the AH figure the longer the battery will be able to perform its two main functions.
The CCA measures the ability of the battery to turn over the engine, the higher the CCA the more powerful the battery. It is important not to get a battery with a lower than recommended CCA as this can cause under performance when starting, especially in cold conditions.
It is best to get a battery with the highest possible AH & CCA ratings bearing in mind the position of the battery as in many vehicles this will restrict the size that can be accommodated.
We can advise on and supply batteries to the best specifications to suit yours and your vehicles needs.
If you need to replace your battery or need a recharge, get in touch on 01372 453453
