Battery Maintenance Tips
Proper maintenance can significantly enhance battery longevity:
Regular Exercise: Periodically fully discharge and then recharge nickel-based batteries to prevent crystal buildup.
Appropriate Charging: Utilize chargers equipped with features like negative delta V cut-off and temperature sensing for small batteries, and multi-stage charging for lead-acid batteries to prevent overcharging and undercharging.
Timely Charging: Avoid leaving batteries on continuous charge after they have reached full capacity, as this can lead to overheating and reduced lifespan.

Battery Conditioning and Reconditioning
At Battery Business, we understand that over time, batteries can experience a decline in performance due to various factors such as usage patterns, charging habits, and inherent chemical processes. To help extend the lifespan of your batteries and ensure optimal performance, we offer specialized Battery Conditioning and Reconditioning services.
Understanding Battery Degradation
Rechargeable batteries, depending on their chemistry, can deteriorate for several reasons:
Nickel-Based Batteries (NiMH or NiCd): These batteries often suffer from crystalline formation, where internal crystals grow larger due to partial discharging and inadequate charging practices. This growth increases internal resistance, causing the battery to deplete faster than expected.
Lead-Acid Batteries: Sulfation is a common issue in lead-acid batteries, where sulfur accumulates on the battery plates, hindering performance.
Our Conditioning and Reconditioning Services
To combat these issues, we provide the following services:
Battery Testing: We offer free battery testing to assess the current health and performance of your battery.
Reconditioning Programs: For batteries exhibiting reduced performance, we utilize advanced diagnostic tools to perform reconditioning cycles. This process can rejuvenate batteries, especially those used in power tools and mobile devices, by breaking down crystal formations and restoring capacity.
Desulfation for Lead-Acid Batteries: Using multi-stage chargers with desulfation capabilities, we can address sulfur buildup, potentially extending the life of your lead-acid batteries.
