Battery Service Basics

Car batteries have a big job when you consider what they do. Not only does your battery need to store enough power to get your car started, but it also has to provide that power at a moment's notice. To do this, your battery uses lead-acid technology which is very good at providing high surge currents. However, like all battery technology, lead-acid batteries tend to go bad over time. The best way to prevent your battery from going bad mid-drive is to take it in for battery testing and inspection every once in a while. In some cases, your battery may be too far gone and battery replacement may be your only option. If this is the case, it's important to make sure you take your Honda to a mechanic who has new batteries for sale from the best brands. A cheap battery is likely to fail quicker than a nice one.
