What We Carry

Over 40 lead-acid group sizes in stock, lithium for every need, and solar equipment to keep your life charged.

Free Battery & Alternator Testing

Walk in during business hours. We'll test your battery and alternator at no charge — and if your battery needs replacing, we can install a new one for you right on the spot.

Custom Off-Grid Systems

Tailored off-grid setups of any size. Inverters, charge controllers, micro-hydro, wind, and custom cables — we build it all.

Battery Recycling

Over 95% of lead batteries are fully recyclable. Bring us your old batteries — we'll make sure they're recycled the right way.

Wondering About Lithium?

Lithium batteries last 3–5× longer than lead, weigh 1/3 as much, and offer far more usable capacity. Our 12V 100Ah and 170Ah LiFePO4 drop-in replacements for Group 24/27 come with Bluetooth BMS for easy monitoring.

  • Built to last 10+ years
  • Bluetooth BMS (iPhone & Android) for monitoring
  • Much lighter — same charging system as lead (LiFePO4)
  • Charges significantly faster than lead
  • New, used/tested, off-the-shelf, and custom builds
