Today's challenges to the battery in the workshop Challenges
relating to batteries in the modern workshop and how to achieve
100% reliability. Modern cars have such high energy requirements
that the alternator cannot compensate for the power drained off
if the vehicle is mainly used to make short journeys. The result
is a negative charge balance after each journey, which can lead
to battery problems down the line. At colder times of the year
this can lead to problems with starting and battery failure. If
the car is not used for long periods, such as during holidays or
long business trips, the battery may discharge due to consumers
that are on standby. Because of this, modern cars need a
substantial top-up charge whenever they come into the workshop,
allowing the vehicles to receive the maximum possible power
boost within the limited time the vehicle is in for servicing.
This considerably reduces starting problems and long-term damage
due to sulphation and greatly increases customer satisfaction
