As the batteries become fully charged and are no longer able to accept any further electrical energy. Consequently, the battery voltage will rise. Of course, when the voltage reaches the regulation level (varies with battery type see below) So, starts to dump power the controller’s lights are a solid red. Naturally,this energy is dissipated as heat into the surrounding environment. Significantly,more or less power is diverted to the dump load. According to how much is being supplied to the battery from the turbine.

The various towns and cities. They are the beating heart of humanity, teeming with life and bursting with the vitality of life’s potential. Most importantly, these locations have enormous untapped potential. The possibility of a change. In the name of the green revolution.

Night battery storage collection techniques and battery storage are of the utmost importance. In our fight against climate change, they are the unsung heroes who deserve praise.

Our bustling towns and cities are the unsung conductors of the dance of progress; they are the innovative foster parents of ecosystems that have the potential to and should enthusiastically welcome solar energy.

They are covered in rooftops, which offer vast unoccupied territories for the installation of solar panels. The sunshine that so generously bathes our cityscapes is a resource that never runs out and can always be replenished. There is a lot of it. It is free of dirt. It packs quite a punch.

Solar collection is more than just harnessing the sun’s rays.

It has to do with storing things. Night battery storage, comes into play at this point, making it possible to make sure that not even a sliver of sunlight is wasted. A safe and dependable reserve, which is especially important when the sun stealthily hides behind the clouds, so that the energy that sustains life can continue to meet our unending requirements.

Cities are engines of progress and transformation. They are at the forefront, boldly taking the initiative to lead the charge against the energy crises we are facing.

Therefore, it is absolutely necessary for each and every municipality, big or small, to thoroughly incorporate solar energy collection and Night battery storage. It’s not just a step in the right direction environmentally; it’s also a profound statement about our dedication to our planet and our future.

The pace of change is frequently slow. Nevertheless, the transformation that needs to take place within our urban spaces must be quick and absolutely unwavering. Our commitment to fostering a lifestyle powered by the sun should not, cannot, and under no circumstances should we waver in this endeavour. It is necessary in light of recent events. It is the responsibility that we share as a group.

The villages and larger cities.

They are not simply assemblages of brick and mortar, but rather dynamic entities that have a soul that is alive and well and breathing. And residing within this soul is the innate capacity to be bearers of sustainable change, to be torchbearers in the never-ending journey of environmental responsibility.

Our urban conglomerations, with their conglomeration of various structures, hold the promise of a solar-enriched future, heralding an era in which our relationship with energy is not just responsible but also harmoniously symbiotic.

This future holds the promise of a solar-enriched future. And it is precisely this dance of light and storage, which is so fluidly intertwined, that gives the green vision that we have steadfastly yearned for its breath of life.

In this journey towards a greener world, our towns and cities are not just important; they are absolutely necessary. Let’s give them the ability to create, to use, and to become the green havens of tomorrow, where solar rays and innovative storage walk hand in hand, painting a brighter and cleaner future for all of us.

A Dutch company -Night battery storage

Of course, that has invented many types of solar power battery chargers and lights, mainly for developing countries that do not have a stable electric power system, has come up with a great product now named Waka-Waka-Power.

The WWP (WAKA-WAKA-POWER) has been designed with a joint venture from a team of microchip makers to make the WWP much slimmer and lighter than its predecessor, the WAKA-WAKA-LIGHT.

“Place Waka Waka Power in direct sunlight for a whole day and you will notice that the batteries will be completely full, even if you live in New York or Seattle (where the intensity of the sun is far less than in Texas).

The capacity of the Night battery storage is large enough to fully operate most mobile phone from completely depleted, to practically full. On top of this, you will have 10 or more hours of excellent reading light as well.

If you don’t charge your phone or tablet, as said before, you can have more than 40 hours of light.”… http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wakawakalight/wakawaka-power-the-best-compact-solar-power-statio

New technology is used in developing countries. Night battery storage

So, in my opinion, this is a great breakthrough for solar energy. Both in developing countries and to contribute towards the rest of the world’s green energy and Night battery storage, problems.

At the present time, the combined savings in energy costs must be phenomenal. Hence, if people used this charging device to charge up their mobile phones, Including the new-type phones from this sun-powered WWP solar charging machine.

This is truly a great invention by this Dutch company. So, in my opinion, the way forward will also eliminate the use of kerosene.

Give these points: the liquid fuel used by so many African families for their lighting at night causes so many burning accidents for the users.

Varta Car batteries

Varta Batteries: –A little History

“Varta batteries stands originally for (Vertrieb Aufladung Reparatur Transportabler Akkumulatoren) .With its headquarters in the German cities of Berlin and Hagen,. Hence, in the district of Westphalia. Consequently, a certain Gunther Quandt purchased the company. Just after the first world war.

The Varta Car batteries company . Then made batteries .Used in the second world war German battle machine. Batteries they made were used to power submarines . Also for the German Luftwaffe. Slaves produced the majority of the batteries. Thus, under very poor working conditions,. Perhaps the dark side of Varta car batteries is something we should forget.

The modern-day Varta product

Therefore, is one of excellence . Raising standards of the new car battery world. With its quality battery products. After many changes in directors and company ownership,. Johnson Controls purchased Varta Car Batteries in 2002. Hence, this was thought to be a great step forward . Of course, in the battery industry . Raising the standards of quality even higher.

It is thought that Johnson Controls . As a result, paid in the region of $240 million for the  batteries side of the business .Accordingly, the deal went through by the end of 2003″

Pellon Tyre and Auto-centre offer

car and van servicing and repairs to all makes of vehicles. Members of Unipart Car Care centres .Giving a nationwide guarantee for all our work and parts. We sell tyres online from our website, www.pellonautocentre.com . Hence, use the tyre selector and choose your tyre size.

As a result, we offer courtesy cars to local motorists. Needing to go to work and leave their car with us for work. Consequently, we are also an official MOT testing station.

Important: Since this post, Johnson Control has sold off their battery part of the business.

In 2024 we have now joined Tyresafe.org to help in tyre safety campaigns.

Car batteries-Cold weather

Car batteries-Cold weather

Another warning to vehicle users! Have their car batteries checked before the winter and you will reduce the risk of being caught out in a snow storm?

Of course, Car batteries and Cold weather do not mix! It would be like your battery sitting in a fridge. I am sure that it happens to some people. Remember that when it is cold, we use all the electrical appliances in your car. Importantly, if your battery is not up to scratch,. Then it will let you down and it could let you down in an isolated place. Frighteningly, or a snow drift if you live on the east coast of America. Of course, with the massive snow falls that they are having at the moment,.

Batteries let you down when you least expect it- Car batteries-Cold weather

After years of experience of selling car batteries. I know that it is the last thing on a drivers mind when they set off on a journey. It is like any other battery situation, you only know about it when the battery runs out of power. The best example which happens in most households is the mobile phone. Specifically when the phone  goes flat! It is total panic and the phone must be charged up at all costs.

Fortunately your car battery is a better engineered system. It will probably never let you down in a five year period. However, when it does, you will be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Of course, in most cases it will not be a simple case of charging it back up again.

Statistically, your regular car batteries would fail in the cold winter months. This would always apply when I was first-time Lucas battery retailer in the 1970’s. I would stock up in the summer when the battery companies would always have a quantity deal, all ready for the winter explosion of car battery sales. The first cold spell in November would bring in number of cars with our first rush of cheap Cheap Car Batteries, it never failed us.

Since the early days, car batteries have changed- Car batteries-Cold weather

There were a couple of marked differences concerning car batteries then compared to modern day cars. First the car manufacturers would make millions of one model of car. Say Vauxhall made millions of Vivas and Cavaliers. Including, Ford made millions of Escorts and Cortina’s. Then of course came the original Minis. They outcome of this was that the size and part number of the batteries were all the same. The 038 battery fitted almost every car other that the Fords. Opting for square bolt on terminals part numbers 037 and 085, later the 065 battery became more popular.

As years went by we started to import many makes of cars from the Far East. Such as Toyota, Nissan at first and then many more cars came into the UK. This had a massive effect on battery sizes and part numbers. Making the car batteries market more specialised.

This is where I made am good business decision! Deciding to make the battery market a key part of my business strategy. Although I did not know it the time this decision gave me contacts that were to last me right up to today.

Car batteries remained much the same

Significantly, the only thing that changed was the different terminals. Including, the physical sizes of the batteries. Of course, battery plates, became a new mix of alloys and lead alloys. So, companies the likes of Lucas batteries became one of the first to introduce practically sealed batteries that were maintenance free. Of course, there were no screw tops on the Car batteries. Consequently, for the driver to check the acid levels.

Also there was the evolution of the cars. Cars were now coming out on more sophisticated electrical systems, which required car batteries with more power. We found that a difference in the old type battery and the new type of battery was that the new types of battery did not give you much time after failure, one morning the battery light would come on in your car and you would need a new battery, there and then; you do not have the time any more.

This is why it is important to check the battery before the winter

and when the car has a service. The cold weather that I have recently seen in the east coast of the USA makes me cringe at the number of drivers who must have been stuck in their cars with a dead battery. Remember, they will let you down when you least expect them to! Car batteries do not give you much time. Subsequently, batteries now fail very rapidly, not giving the driver much time. So, to have a new battery fitted after the failure of the old battery.

Simply put, the large amount of electricity that a modern car has onboard now affects lack of change time!

017 EFB Batteries

So,  bringing this post up to date in 2021, the EFB battery is becoming very popular. Happily for us, the winter of 2020/21 has become a very cold, snowy winter. If most people hate the bad weather, then of course we love it. cold weather means a little more business for us.

Specialist products give us a few more sales than normal. However, this year is the year when batteries on new car sales from a few years ago are due to be replaced! Including the start-stop batteries known as the EFB and the AGM.

Vehicle owners will have noticed by now that these batteries are more expensive than a regular car battery. Of course the batteries are different due to technology and more expensive parts inside the battery.

Numax EFB batteries are great mid-range battery

So, when sourcing a good-priced battery for my customers, I finally chose the Numax brand.  Firstly, Numax are available at the moment! Like many other products, batteries are suffering shortage problems.

Mainly due to the massive demand from consumers after battery factories were shut down due to the “Corona Virus Pandemic”. This is causing massive shipping problems, with stock orders going out of the window.

However, Numax and Lucas are now the same products and are coming through at regular intervals.

Lucas brand AGM Batteries

There has been an increasing degree of partnership with Japanese corporations. Such as with Sumitomo on car-body systems . Or Yuasa Battery Company. In response to the growing likelihood that Japanese components firms.

Therefore, will make inroads into the European market . So deeply as they already have in the United States. Lucas Automotive have had  success in 1989 in attracting orders. From BMW and Saab-Scania . Thus, for fuel injection systems,. Was an indication of its ability . Hence, to compete directly in Europe… http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/lucas-industries-plc-history/

As we can see in this. History of the Lucas company .

Then, Lucas were doing cross-country deals. In the expanding car component sector. Including a deal that was struck with Yuasa batteries of Japan. As a result, these batteries went under the Lucas brand name. They were imported with many battery part numbers .

Coming into the UK and the USA that were unfamiliar to the British battery manufacturers .

Yuasa batteries actually started producing batteries in the USA in 1979. Producing car and AGM batteries . Hence, in 1996, the great Lucas empire. It merged with the American company Varity Corporation and the UK part of the company.

“Now trading under the name of ‘Lucas Electrical’ . Then the company concentrates on after-market component supply. Rather than as an original equipment supplier to manufacturers.

Initially, the Lucas name was used on Elta’s existing products . Automotive light bulbs have been gradually expanded to cover much the same range as the original Lucas company: light units, batteries, switches and controls, ignition components, re manufactured starter motors and alternators, wiper blades and electrical accessories.

Operations and manufacturing take place at several locations in the UK as well as overseas”… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LucasVarity

This is the stage where the Lucas battery label in the famous green and white Lucas colours was sold off to a British Battery company in the Midlands.

Of course, since I wrote this post in 2016, things in the automotive industry have moved on. especially in the battery world. Including Lucas batteries!

Because of new emissions laws, the auto industry has had to develop cleaner and greener engines. Emission laws have become much stricter, and car makers have had to develop cleaner engines. Including “Start-Stop “engines. I think we all probably know by now what this is. However, judging by the emails that I have to respond to on Ebay ! Then you would not think so.

Customers still want the cheapest car battery possible ?

So, customers with large cars are always trying to cut corners by asking about the cheapest battery for their car. Annoyingly, they are always asking if our small 063 battery will fit their vehicle ! Of course, the correct battery is usually ten times bigger and more powerful ! But they would fit the cheapest car battery possible if they could !

So, why this is I will never know ! This brings me on to “Stop-Start” batteries. Because of the constant switching on and off of the car engines that are fitted with stop-start, a stronger battery with deep cycle capability had to be developed. So, this development came in two forms! The AGM car battery and the EFB car battery.

Consequently, the AGM battery comes out on the larger car models and the EFB car battery on the smaller car models. This is usually the general rule of thumb. So, without getting too technical, your battery will state which type it is. Of course, the images in this post clearly show the different types ! AGM of EFB.

Not only are batteries a mode of transportation, Lucas Premium Batteries

Significantly, battery selection can be a reflection of their respective owners. Of course, this relates to the selection of different types of Lucas Premium Batteries and which car drivers buy. So, as I have said earlier some of our online customers just want the Cheap Car Batteries. Whilst other people prefer to buy a better known brand, such as Lucas Premium Batteries.

If you require a certain type of battery for your vehicle. Say with a different terminal type, such as early Ford vehicles, like say the Ford Cortina or early Ford Escort. Of course, you can look for products on the search engines and type in ” Batteries to fit Ford Cortinas”.

Owning a vehicle has also become supposedly easier

Because there are more options now and the second hand car market is more organized and sophisticated. Of course, thanks to the Internet and e-commerce. However, a lot of people prefer to hold on to their old cars and vans! Because the not-so-recent global economic crisis has decreased their purchasing power. the average family in the UK spends £3000 a year less than before the financial crisis started.

So, for these reasons, it is important to keep your vehicle in tiptop shape for as long as possible. naturally, this could be achieved with proper vehicle maintenance. Apart from the periodic oil changes and tune-ups ! So, it is also crucial that your car be installed with dependable and well-performing  Premium grade Batteries.

Even with the advent od electric cars, the majority of the world’s vehicle owners drive cars run on fossil fuels. Lucas Premium Batteries

Because of engine development including on-board computers. Specifically, these cars require more a more powerful supply of electric energy ! Without good quality Premium Batteries .Your car will not be able to start !Nor will it be able to have access to electrical power in the event of an alternator failure.

In addition, as I have said, nearly all recent car models have an on-board computer . Which is also powered by electrical charge supplied by the car batteries. Suffice it to say, people must pay as much attention to their car batteries as other aspects of their cars. There are numerous dealers of well-known brands such as ApolloPower batteries, Varta batteries, and of course Lucas batteries.

ll of which can be found at regular shops or online battery stores. They are best places to go to for information and recommendations for the most suitable Premium Batteries for your particular vehicle. There are certain factors to consider in choosing a Replacement Car Battery ! So be aware of these ! Consequently, by ensuring the longevity of your battery and the overall stress-free maintenance of your vehicle.

The first consideration is which battery is for you.

This can be determined by your old batteries part number ! Also by measuring the dimensions of your existing battery, including the terminal layout ! There are standard group sizes which cover all types of Lucas batteries.

 You can find out the group size of your car battery by checking the owner’s manual or through certain online sources for battery cataloguing. Another important factor to consider is what the Amp/Hr rating is for your battery ?

This is an important element in choosing a good car battery

. Because it determines how long the battery can supply the required electrical power. Of course, in case the car’s alternator fails to function. In my opinion, the best way to make sure that you buy the correct one ! So is to replace it with exactly the same part numbers as the one on the car.

For extra assistance, then you can also telephone your online dealer to help in choosing the correct one for your vehicle. Beware of online companies who are not willing to help you. On the whole, a confident honest company will have all contact details at hand to give you the correct advice. In the event of not giving you there contact details then do not buy from them ? Subsequently, they may not be there in two years time ! To cover you in case your battery should go faulty.

What is Cold cranking amps ? Lucas Premium Batteries

Cold cranking amps or CCA refers to your power rating in terms of its ability to start your vehicle . Supplying electrical power even during extremely cold weather. Naturally, you will can indeed choose a new battery with a rating CCA higher than or equal to car’s original one. This will ensure that your car will continue to operate smoothly even in the harshest winters. Last but not least is the quality of the brand of the car battery that you can buy .

As I have reiterated before, there are many brands to choose from ! But only a handful are reliable and of good quality. In the UK, you can easily find Lucas Premium Batteries for any type of vehicle. Along with other makes and types, this is one of the most cost-effective brands known for its long life and stability.

096 New Car Battery

096 New Car Battery

096 New Car Battery and Car Alternators

If your car requires another 096 New Car Battery,. Hence, it is well worth having your cars dynamo checked out. We here at batteriesontheweb.co.uk  have fitted thousands of car batteries . Only for the car 

owners to return in a week or two . Stating that theirs is “not working very well.”. Only to find out after a test. It is not working correctly.
When you have a new one fitted. Then, you should ask yourself a few questions?.

Has yours failed?

Are you absolutely certain that it isn’t something else? Such as the starter?. Determining which part has failed. Therefore, it is essential to avoid unnecessary costs. By

replacing something that hasn’t even really failed. Although this is usually the case, a faulty alternator can also damage your 096 New Car Battery. Let’s take a look at some steps you can take to determine that you have failed and have not, in fact,  packed in?.

If you own a voltage testing machine, you can test to see whether your car’s alternator is charging correctly. For most people, this isn’t practical, as few motorists own such an expensive piece of equipment. For everyone else, there is a practical way for you to easily check to see if yours is working properly:

096 New Car Battery

1: Connect a voltmeter to your 096 New Car Battery. These can only cost about £6 from E-Bay and are a useful tool to own.

2: Start your car

3: Observe the voltage output on the volt metre so that you can make an accurate determination.

If there is an increase in voltage when you start your car,

then your alternator is more than likely working just fine. It will be most Likely that  your battery is the culprit; check the 096 New Car Battery itself and the connections to make a final determination.

If there is no increase in voltage, you are likely looking at having to replace your alternator.

The next step, of course, is to determine whether you will replace the alternator yourself or have someone else do the job. Some things to keep in mind as you weigh your options include:

If you trust your vehicle to a local service centre,

. Of course, will the total cost of the work include the parts and labour? Will there be a guarantee? From a local centre, there will certainly be a guarantee; on most parts, this will be 12 months for electrical goods and 2 years for other parts.

If you decide to do the work yourself, do you have all the tools on hand to get the work done? Do you own a repair manual? Do you want to purchase a new alternator, or will a reconditioned unit do the job? Another option would be to buy one from the local scrap yard, but you could be in a similar position six months down the road.

096 New Car Battery

Your choices today are much greater than they were ten years ago, before internet shopping became a strong factor in bringing down the price of high-end auto parts. Several online wholesalers, including the Andrew Pages (now closed),. This way of buying is fine, but today cars are becoming much more refined and complicated, and even we at PellonAutocentre in Halifax make mistakes and order the wrong ones.
In my opinion, it would be best to leave the job to the experts, who will give you a free car battery test and also know that the work carried out will be guaranteed throughout the UK, to give you great peace of mind.

I am sitting here writing this article. I must admit that I am envious of all the people who are now buying their caravan batteries. So, in preparation for the new caravan season,. The year has been a poor year for car batteries because of the very mild winter.

I suppose, though, that we battery dealers should not really complain.

We have had a decent run of very cold winters. Hence, we should have known that we were due to have a mild one. So, and we certainly did. In fact, it is the first year that I can ever remember in my 65 years. We did not have any snowfall whatsoever.

We have now written last winter off as a bad year.Especially for car battery sales. Thus, we are already looking forward to the leisure and caravan battery seasons. Which has already started with a bang (what you lose on the swings you gain on the roundabout), as the saying goes.

Britain is now the largest touring caravan market in Europe. We took over from the then-number-one country, Germany, in 2003. Of course, we were still number one in 2006, when the latest figures were released by… http://www.politics.co.uk/ .It is estimated that there are over half a million touring caravans in the UK.

Including another 330,000 static caravan holiday homes. I am going to write about the growing number of motor homes in another article.

Caravan Batteries

Caravan Batteries

Over the years, many caravan owners have asked me the same question? Is there a difference between caravan batteries and car batteries? And the answer is YES. In the early days, car batteries were used to power the minimal electrics that caravans would use.

There were no TVs, Fridges and all the other modern-day electrics that you can see in today’s modern caravans—just a few light bulbs and an electric pump. The normal car or truck battery would have done the job perfectly.

Now we have seen the development of a new type of leisure batteries. The most popular one that we are now selling is, in fact, a 100-amp battery that is made and developed by the largest battery maker in the world, Johnson Controls.

They decided that the design of the car battery was fine, but it needed to hold more storage than starter power. This was done by using thicker plates that were able to store more power to supply the caravan with the electricity that it needed for the evenings.

XV24MF caravan batteries are a good buy.

This type of battery, known as the LV26, was then marketed as a leisure battery and would provide the caravan owner with auxiliary power, which was able to be

charged by the car’s electric system on a route, or, as now with the use of solar panels, on a sunny day. You can upgrade to an AGM battery system, which will work better with solar panels because of the better charge and discharge rate, but for the average caravan trip, the LV26 will be perfect for the job.

These caravan batteries have now been tried and tested over the years, generally do a good job, and will give the caravan owner good service for about four or five years.

To aid in prolonging the life

of your caravan batteries, I would invest in a 12v smart battery charger and connect it to your battery over the winter period, We advise using the Ring Automotive chargers, which are online-only and available when your caravan is not in use. I hope that this article is of use to you Happy caravan trips.

069 Lucas Car Batteries: Do Lucas Make Their Own car batteries

069 Lucas Car batteries

069 Lucas Car Batteries

So, today’s car battery market is flooded with all kinds of different makes of products. Some of them are household names. Such as 069 Lucas Car Batteries and others are not so well known. All kinds of things are springing up. Of course, with claims and counterclaims about how good their batteries are.

Significantly, one of the driving forces in this has been the internet! Especially E-bay. This is where you are likely to find the cheapest car battery prices. Subsequently, the problem is: do you trust what you are buying? I have noticed recently. That is the cheapest price for 069 Lucas Car Batteries.

Consequently, this is not even a new one! But it looks like a re-used product, whatever that means! Many auto owners, however, will want to buy a quality product. Going for products that are made by a reputable company. Of course, such as Lucas, who makes the 069 Lucas Car Batteries.

Are you selling your car?

The truth is, unless you are selling your car,. Then you should stick to a named product that you can trust. Naturally, the better will not be the cheapest. But you must be able to rely on the after-service. Customers are better off ordering your new one from an actual web site. Of course, than any other form of internet selling platform.

The website will be accountable if you should get a problem with say a delivery that has gone wrong or a faulty battery.

You can even call a website to confirm that the one you are buying is the correct one for your car. A few examples of names you can trust would be Lucas batteries. As I said earlier, they do not manufacture their own any more. Ecobat, a wholesaler, purchased the rights to sell 069 Lucas Car Batteries. The company sells two standards. The Classic and the Premium.

Lucas premium car batteries are a first-class product

I have been selling car products now for well over 30 years, longer than I care to remember, and consequently, I have seen these companies come and go, but the 069 Lucas Car Batteries has always kept a high standard of quality and maintained a high standard in the dealers.

The premium battery is a maintenance-free battery (that means you don’t have to top them up every two minutes) with calcium technology to cope with modern car electric systems and slightly higher voltage requirements. This battery, which is by Johnson Controls and has a black casing, is a recycled item.

The classic is more of a budget battery suitable for older models of cars with lower engine capacities. This battery could be made by different European  manufacturers but is selected by Ecobat to offer excellent service in use.

As a footnote Johnson Controls have now sold their battery manufacturing side of the business.

You know that if you select  069 Lucas Car Batteries that you can rely on the dealer to look after you if you should occur any problems after the purchase, whether in the their store or on their website, beware of other selling platforms on the internet, they may have vanished when a problem raise its ugly head.

Quality Car batteries; driving the car in winter conditions

One of the most obvious but important parts of winter driving is to prepare  for the bad weather that will be certain to affect us. We experience a lot of bad weather every winter. So, most of us will get caught out and unprepared for the journey back home from shopping or from work.

This happens time and time again.

Of course, there are too many motorists who get caught in heavy rain. Especially flooding similar to the weather this week or a really fast and heavy snow storm. If you check your car out, you will eliminate most of the worry of bad road conditions. Feeling safer and glad that you were prepared.

  • It always pays to have your car checked at an independent local garage for a pre-winter check.
  • This takes the form of checking your levels for antifreeze. To make sure that it has the correct strength to withstand freezing temperatures. Also, your screen wash and oil levels must be checked. The early dark nights also call for your lights to be checked. How many times do you see a car with only one head on that looks like a motorcycle from a distance ?.
  • The most important things to check are your tyres. I know that I harp on about it, but please buy a set of winter tyres. So, this alone will help you on wet and snow-covered winter roads and give you much more confidence when travelling out to work or to the shops. Many more drivers are now switching to winter tyres and are spreading the news to their relatives and friends. They really do make a massive difference when driving on the roads in the winter.
Check the depth of the water before

going through in your car

Other advice now relates to flooding. Flooding has now become a common scene here in the UK. When you approach a flood, please take care not to take your vehicle  in too deep. Try to avoid the flooded road if possible. Especially if you must go across the water, make sure you stop and check your brakes on the other side. Of course, a minor point is that water could damage your exhaust pipes and catalytic converter a few weeks later. Another part of the car that is neglected in winter is your car battery.

You can easily be caught stranded away from home

if your battery lets you down. If your vehicle is over 5 years old, it may be better for you to change the battery for a new one before your old battery lets you down. Remember, it always happens when you are away from home and will cost you less to replace it than expensive breakdown charges. If you do have to buy a new battery, make sure that you choose Quality Car Batteries. They often come with a better warranty and will last longer

Eric Roberts‘s insight:

Lead acid batteries have been around in their present form for many years.

Of course, it is only in recent times that the lead acid car battery has been overcome. Subsequently, with more modern technology, batteries As a result, those are now being developed for modern electric and hybrid car manufacturers.

Significantly, due to the rush for more environmentally friendly battery products. Such as the lithium ion! Now used are many car models, such as the Nissan leaf and the Toyota Auris hybrids.

In my opinion, though, the ever faithful lead-acid batteries, that we still use in the millions Thus, it will still be around for many years to come. They have been tried, tested, and proven for almost a hundred years since their invention in 1859 by French physicist Gaston Planté.

Nothing much has changed in the past forty years.

As an old guy then, I have bought and sold batteries now for more than 40 years. Car battery types have had modifications. Additionally, such as different lead alloys. That are now used in the manufacture of the battery plates. Increasing development of casings to help suppress and resist vibrations.

Most truck and car ones are now sealed and maintenance free. So the motorists do not have to top them up any more. Although some battery makers have the old fashioned screw tops. So that you can top up the electrolyte when the acid  has evaporated.

The big development came when the AGM lead-acid batteries was invented in 1985 for military use and was developed by Concorde batteries for commercial use outside the military. The AGM (absorbed Glass Matting) lead-acid batteries is completely sealed and now used in hundreds of applications, although once again these batteries may be slowly replaced by the Lithium-Ion batteries.

 I know that some golf trolley ones are coming out in Lithium-Ion, but at the moment they are very expensive and golfers have a reputation of shall we say, “not putting their hands in their pockets”. The Lithium-Ion’s  were also developed for the military and used on the stealth bombers and they were also used in space flight and on the Mars Lander Craft “Curiosity”.

Another recent development of the lead-acid batteries

So a new introduction has been the introduction of “stop Start” technology. Used on some new models of cars. This was developed by the World’s leading battery company, Johnson Controls. The trade name that they use for these batteries is Varta batteries. What happens is when the car stops the engine is switched off and

When the car wants to set off again, the accelerator is pressed, and the car restarts. The batteries for this job have to be more powerful than the standard lead-acid battery, so the AGM battery lead-acid batteries are used.

In my opinion, the lead-acid battery will be further developed and used in other applications that have not been invented yet and will still be a player in the crazy mix of the development of the modern car. Their big advantage is that they are almost 100% recyclable, which is more than can be said about lithium-Ion batteries.

2000 on

Well, tech buffs, get ready! We’re launching ourselves into the enthralling world of battery technologies today! Batteries may seem uninteresting, but don’t be fooled—they’re actually incredibly powerful!

Let’s dissect it, people! Like the unsung heroes of our technologically advanced age, batteries. Batteries are the lifeblood of everything from phones to cars to watches. And most recently? They’ve undergone a mind-blowing change!

To put it straight, what are the batteries from the past?

Clunky, fleeting, and, to be honest, a little disappointing. But in the present, it seems as though we are living in a science fiction book! Oh yes, battery technology has advanced significantly, and the results are amazing!

Let’s start by discussing capacity!

The most recent batteries store energy effectively and in large quantities, much like a sponge soaking up water. That also implies quicker charging times and a lot less “low battery” anxiety.

The size is another factor. Do you remember those large batteries that made our devices heavier? Gone! Modern versions are svelte, light, and improbably small. while still having a powerful punch!

Hold on, though, there’s more magic to come!

Contemporary batteries are not only superior, but also more environmentally friendly. The newest technologies frequently emphasise longer lifespans and environmentally friendly materials. That benefits both our technology and the environment!

Durability is the icing on the cake. These modern batteries can withstand a lot! They are made to last, guaranteeing that our electronics are always charged and ready to go!

To sum everything up:

The advancement of batteries is truly remarkable. It powers our houses, our future, and our technology. These tiny power reservoirs are promising an even brighter, more electrified future as we keep pushing the limits of ingenuity.

Therefore, the next time you charge your gadget or ponder how long it lasts, consider the battery technology magic that is taking place right in front of you. Get powered and keep exploring until next time!
