Battery types
The type matters as much as the size. Fitting the wrong technology to a start-stop car shortens the new battery’s life.
Conventional cars
The standard maintenance-free battery in most cars without start-stop. Lead-calcium plates sit in liquid electrolyte. Reliable and widely available in Japanese, Korean and American sizes.
Not suitable for start-stop cars.
Entry start-stop
An Enhanced Flooded Battery has reinforced plates that cope with frequent engine restarts. It is fitted from the factory in many smaller start-stop cars.
Can be upgraded to AGM, never downgraded to a standard battery.
Start-stop and high demand
Absorbent Glass Mat batteries hold the electrolyte in glass-fibre mats. They recharge faster and tolerate deep cycling, which suits cars with start-stop, energy recovery and heavy electronics.
A car that left the factory with AGM must get AGM again.
Low-voltage battery
Electric and hybrid cars still use a small low-voltage battery to wake the car and run its computers. Some are ordinary 12 V units, others are model-specific.
We confirm by model year. Some need the service centre.
FAQ
Short, direct answers. Message us if yours is not here.
That depends on the battery’s condition and the cause of the starting problem. The technician tests the battery and explains whether a jump start or a replacement is appropriate.
Send your car’s make, model and year. A clear photo of the current battery and its label helps us check the required type and fitment. We will confirm any further details needed.
Fitted batteries carry a warranty of up to 24 months, depending on the battery. The exact period is written on your invoice.
You can pay by card or cash, or split the payment through Tabby or Tamara. The amount is confirmed with you before any work starts.
Send your location pin with the community, building or venue name. We confirm whether the location is covered and give you the next steps for arranging a visit.
Yes. Start-stop cars need an AGM or EFB battery. A car that came with AGM must be fitted with AGM again, and many European cars also need the new battery registered to the car.
We take the old battery away for recycling at no charge, unless you prefer to keep it.
Send your location, car make, model and year, plus a short description of the problem. We check battery availability and confirm the next steps.
