The importance of planning for winter

Banner Batteries discusses the importance of planning ahead for winter.


In today’s automotive landscape, quality isn’t just King – it’s essential, especially when it comes to lead-acid starter and auxiliary batteries. Why? Because these batteries are no longer just about starting a vehicle – even electric vehicles rely on them. They now power a host of critical onboard systems, from adaptive headlights to tire pressure monitoring, making reliability non-negotiable.

This is why leading vehicle manufacturers demand only the best, turning to brands like Banner for their outstanding performance. With a reputation built on excellence, Banner’s lead-acid batteries are the preferred choice for an elite lineup of original equipment manufacturers, such as: Audi, Aston Martin, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Rolls-Royce, and Volvo – to name a few. From Start-Stop AGM and EFB technology to auxiliary power, Banner batteries are trusted to deliver where it matters most. Simply put: ‘Everything starts with a Banner Battery!’

Testing and charging

Top-tier battery performance doesn’t stop at installation. Garages and workshops must stay equipped with the latest tools to monitor and maintain battery health – both as a duty of care and to ensure optimal vehicle performance. Here again, Banner leads the charge.

Battery testing is the first line of defence during any vehicle service, and Banner’s BBT HD1+ tester is built for the task. Designed for car, truck, and motorcycle batteries, it measures voltage, internal resistance, and charging-starting performance for both 6V and 12V systems. With its rugged rubber housing and lightweight design, the BBT HD1+ is engineered for precision testing – right down to temperature compensation – without straining the battery.

On the charging front, Banner’s latest Accucharger 15 A and 25 A models set new industry standards. These chargers feature a multi-stage charging process that maximizes battery life and performance. With seven charging phases, a powerful 16V boost function, and maximum charging currents of 15 A or 25 A, these units ensure batteries are always operating at peak efficiency.
