How Can I Tell My Battery’s Age
The age of a car battery can be determined using the battery date code. The code is a two-digit code stamped into the cover as part of a longer code or on a battery’s top or side label. The battery date code indicates when the battery was shipped from the manufacturing plant and is read as follows:Letter – indicates in which month the battery was manufactured Digit – indicates the year in which the battery was manufactured For example, an automotive battery date code that starts with “B1” would be February 2021. In February 2027, this battery would be 72 months old.

How Does Heat Affect My Battery
Hot weather means high temperatures under the hood, which accelerates corrosion inside the battery. It can also cause water to evaporate out of the battery’s liquid electrolyte. This can result in decreased battery capacity, a weakened ability to start an engine and, ultimately, shorter battery life.
What Is The Difference Between A Standard Battery And An Agm Battery
A standard/starting battery provides the power to start a vehicle and support standard electrical accessories. In contrast, an AGM battery is designed to provide the superior power, reliability and safety needed for many of todays vehicles. Including vehicles with start-stop technology and multiple power-hungry extras like GPS, entertainment systems and more.

How Do I Stay Safe When Working With A Battery
Use extreme caution when handling electrolyte, a sulfuric acid/water solution that can damage clothing and skin. Keep an acid-neutralizing solution available, such as baking soda. Lead-acid batteries contain hydrogen-oxygen gases that can be explosive and sulfuric acid that can cause severe burns. To help avoid the risk of danger and injury, observe these precautions when handling or working with a lead-acid battery:

Can I Overcharge A Battery
Yes. The most common effect is the battery rapidly dying however, a battery that swells and becomes hot to the touch is also a direct result of overcharging and can be very dangerous and even explode. A good indication of overcharging would be the smell of rotten eggs during charging. The battery is producing extremely flammable hydrogen gas. Never smoke or have open flames around a battery at any time. Always use the correct charger when charging a car battery, and have it checked periodically by a technician if charging must be done frequently. Pay attention to labels that indicate exactly how the battery should be charged this helps eliminate overcharging and possible harm and injury.
What Are Cold Cranking Amps
The battery’s Cold Cranking Amps is an essential measure for good cranking ability in cars, trucks and boats. CCA is the amount of current or amps a battery can provide at 0 °F for a 30-second duration until the battery voltage drops to unusable levels. For example, a 12-volt battery with a 650 CCA rating means the battery will provide 650 amps for 30 seconds at 0 °F before the voltage falls to 7.20 volts for a 12v battery. So in freezing temperatures, a higher CCA level is required to crank your engine. Also, as more cranking power is used, the amount of battery power available decreases.

Had had a dead battery and the staff on duty this past Thursday went above and beyond for me with my battery issues. I tried to tip him for his trouble of coming out in the cold to test my battery but he refused it. He even got a 2nd tester to double check the results showing my battery was not up to par. I certainly appreciated his help!!
