WHY TEST BATTERIES

Are you checking every battery that enters your workshop? If not, then you’re missing out on a huge profit opportunity… Testing the health of a customer’s battery is paramount to keeping their vehicle on the road. By automatically testing every vehicle you see, you’ll be taking your customer service to the ‘next level’. Whether you’re informing customers that they can rest assure their battery is in good health, or giving them the opportunity to update their failing battery before they leave your workshop – both outcomes will have a positive impact on your workshops reputation, and increase your chances of repeat custom. POWER UP YOUR WORKSHOP AND TEST EVERY BATTERY
