It’s important to us at Fullriver Battery that we remain reliable in all seasons. Winter proofing your AGM or GEL battery is easy and here’s how you can do it so your equipment runs smoothly.

Winter Battery Care Tips

  2. Store in Ideal Conditions: Store your battery in a cool, dry place if you won’t be using it. Don’t expose it to extreme cold for long periods.
  3. Use the Right Charger: Choose a charger which is suitable for your battery type to avoid overcharging or undercharging.
