Industry Background

Batteries are an important part of modern life and may have been around a lot longer than most people realise. It is believed the Parthians who ruled Baghdad (ca 250BC) used batteries to electroplate silver. The Egyptians are also thought to have electroplated antimony onto copper over four thousand three hundred years ago.

History also shows, that the first rechargeable lead-acid battery was invented by Plante. (Paris) in 1859. In the ensuing forty years, battery technology advanced somewhat and in the early nineteen hundreds, lead- acid batteries were mass-produced for the emerging automotive industry. These batteries were made of hard rubber and were painstakingly hand -assembled by skilled artisans.

After several years of service, hard rubber batteries were either replaced or reconditioned. The labour and component cost of new batteries made them quite expensive; so many people opted for reconditioning their battery. the reconditioning process involved removal of the battery lid and, replacement of faulty links, plates, separators and complete cells, after which the battery was re-assembled. This reconditioning process was very effective, albeit labour intensive and at an approx cost of 60% of new battery price, the reconditioning cost was quite high, but certainly not as expensive as a new battery.

All this has changed now, as hard rubber batteries were mostly phased out during the sixties, and were replaced with a modern plastic counterpart. Batteries are now manufactured by machines, which are able to produce thousands of batteries in a single day and are manufactured with plastic cases, which are somewhat inaccessible, so the traditional approach to the reconditioning process, no longer works. Not everything has changed though, as the internal components of modern, lead acid automotive batteries have not changed dramatically since the turn of last century.

Equipped with forty six years industry experience, which commenced on the manufacturing floor of a large battery Co, The Battery Professionals have developed a very effective system for reconditioning modern car batteries utilising a unique electro-chemical process. Experience indicates that once reconditioned, the batteries last up to 70% of the life of a new battery and are able to be sold complete with a full replacement warranty.

Once the reconditioning process is applied to old car batteries, they are then sold to wholesale and retail customers at a cost of say, $35- $100 each. The best part is, the total reconditioning process costs only fifty cents per battery. So if you are able to sell say, fifteen to twenty batteries to a customer at one time, it is quite possible for you to earn $525- $1,200 for a ten-minute delivery.
