What we do

Provide expert advice and sales for customer seeking automotive batteries. This is a general description for lead acid batteries used as starter batteries for the engines of vehicles such as cars, trucks, agricultural applications and motorcycles. Apart from providing starting power, in most instances automotive type batteries also provide power for vehicle accessories, such as lights, radios and aircon, when the vehicle is parked, and the engine is not running. They also play a vital role in smoothing out sudden spikes and drops in the vehicle’s electrical power needs.

This battery design differs from that of a deep-cycle batteries used to provide a constant supply of power over a longer period, such as those used caravans, camper trailers and recreational four-wheel drive market.

Lithium batteries are increasingly becoming available to perform this function. Lithium is a broad term covering many types of batteries. Automotive starter batteries are usually lithium ion phosphate. These types of automotive batteries are different from the larger batteries used in electric vehicles.
