Battery

At The Green Spark Plug Company, we stock batteries and associated components that deliver the advantages of modern technology without compromising on that all-important sense of tradition. When it comes to classic cars, appearance and performance matter in equal measure. It’s what you want for your pride and joy. 

Each of our stocked brands have their own rich automotive history and that is reflected in the quality of the product they produce for the classic car market. 

 

Battery Testers

In order to establish where the problem lies with your existing battery set-up, you may require a battery tester, such as the Durite discharge tester or the Nolten heavy duty discharge battery tester. This equipment is capable of measuring the level of charge actually present within a cell and its voltage output. It can also establish its ability to accumulate charge, given that capacity can deteriorate over time.

Over time, your battery tester itself may require a replacement meter, heat shield or paper roll in order to maintain an excellent level of performance. 

 

Battery Cable

Battery cables are vital for establishing a connection between the battery cable and a vehicle’s electrical components. They are produced using particularly thick and high quality wires that offer more sustained protection against extreme temperatures, moisture and vibration. These are all common conditions with an automotive environment and so you need a battery cable that can hold up. At The Green Spark Company, we only stock brands we trust to deliver. 

From an installation perspective, battery cables are relatively simple to fit with clearly labelled terminated ends. You can choose from a wide array of terminals, sizes, lengths and colours depending on your specification, which can be custom. For ease of use and to reduce the likelihood of abrasion, most battery cables are contained within a harness rather than left loose. 

Among the most popular battery cables that we stock are the Black Copper Core Flexible PVC Starter Cable and the Red Copper Core Flexible PVC Starter Cable, and their non-flexible counterparts.

Battery Chargers

As Durite battery charger stockists, we are confident in their ability to get your classic car moving again as quickly as possible. An unwanted flat battery can be caused by a number of different factors:

- Age

- Extreme temperatures

- Vehicle electrics being left on for an extended period of time without the engine running

In the case of classic cars, which are not always driven on a regular basis, it is particularly important that you have a reliable battery charger at the ready. You never know when you’re going to need it. We would recommend choosing a micro chip controlled three stage charging battery which can be permanently connected to your vehicle. It uses intelligent technology to keep the battery topped up without causing any damage. Other types of battery charger include the following:

- Automatic automotive battery charger for lead/acid batteries. These can be attached using ring terminals, crocodile clips or a cigarette lighter. 

- Heavy duty bench start assist/charger with charge timer that can be set to automatic, manual, high or low charge

- Trolley manual start assist/charger
