    5 Tips For Choosing The Best Car Battery

    Make Sure To Know What Size You Need

    It is wise to find this out before you go, so you don't have to waste anytime asking or foguring this out on your own. This usually depends on your make, model, and engine size.

    A Maintenance-Free Design

    All this means is that you won' have to do anything else to your battery like top it off with distilled water. 

    Consider A High Performance Battery

    With the constant release of new technology inside of vehicles, getting a high performance battery that can handle more drain might be something you should consider. It Just depends on how much of a tech nerd you are!

    Where Will You Be Driving (Hot or Cold) Climate?

    All we ask is that you check the battery you are purchasing to make sure that it is either designed for warmer clients or for colder climates.

    Check The CCA Rating On Your Battery

    CCA stands for cold cranking amps. This rating will let you know it's ability to start an engine in very cold temperatures. Also it is important to know that battery starting power will start to decrease as the battery gets older.
