BUY A NEW BATTERY FOR YOUR CAR OR TRUCK

When shopping for a new battery for your vehicle, it's essential to select the right replacement that matches both your vehicle's CCA (cold cranking amps) specification and its manufacturer recommendations.

The battery is a major part of a car when it starts the engine. Without a battery the engine will not crank over. Before your car turns ON and the engine starts running, when you press the button or turn the key in your car's ignition, this is what happens inside the battery:

  1. A chemical reaction is created.
  2. The chemical reaction releases energy.
  3. The battery stores the chemical energy.
  4. The chemical energy converts into electrical energy.
  5. The electrical energy gets the motor and engine to start running.

The charging system of a vehicle consists of three major parts: a good battery, an alternator, and a voltage regulator.
