MOBILITY AND COVID-19

WHAT YOU SHOULD LOOK OUT FOR IN YOUR CAR BATTERY NOW.

Short-distance journeys and long idle times reduce the energy level of your battery. Do a battery check.

In the age of coronavirus, many of us work from home and only use our cars for really important journeys. Frequent short trips and irregular driving profiles combined with stop-and-go traffic have lowered the energy level of your battery start after start and trip after trip. Treat your battery to an extra portion of external recharging now.

Testing the voltage of all car batteries

with the BBT DV1 Digital Voltmeter

This is a handy meter that quickly and reliably measures the battery voltage. The display is an easily readable LCD display with 2 decimal places. A voltage table on the unit provides information about the battery’s state of charge. Super easy application with high precision.

How to jump start correctly

First of all: Due to the sensitive electronics in the vehicle, only a Banner Booster should be used to jump start the vehicle. Performing a jump start from car to car can lead to voltage peaks when disconnecting and, in doing so, can damage or even destroy the vehicle’s electronics. Therefore, when using starter cables, be sure to follow the instructions in the article below:
