New Operating Hours

Interstate Batteries is happy to announce that we have extended our operating hours. Traditionally we were open 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We are now open at 7:00 AM Monday through Friday. We have consistently said we want to make purchasing a battery as easy as possible. We received feedback that not being open before 8:00 AM made it harder to do business with us. After a test program we realized that it just made sense to open an hour earlier. We are always looking for changes that can be made in our organization which will increase our customer service and welcome feedback so that we can continually improve.

Thank you for your feedback!

Battery Tips

Car batteries are unsung transportation heroes. These heavy, black boxes rest quietly under the hood, ready to provide the essential electrical charge needed to fire up an engine and begin driving. Without a healthy battery, your car is just a large, metal sculpture parked in the driveway.


Throughout the life of your vehicle, you will probably have to replace your car's battery a number of times. Either it gets old and has to be replaced, or it is drained unintentionally when lights or another electrical accessory are left on. A dead battery can be a hassle, especially if you cannot find jumper cables or have to wait for roadside assistance. Being proactive in replacing your battery can ensure that your car is ready to go when you are.

Battery Maintenance

With a maintenance-free or sealed battery, you don't have to check or refill the electrolyte levels. Most of the batteries sold at Interstate Batteries are maintenance free. What this means is you can open the caps and check on them but it is not required. The benifit of having a battery you can check on is that you can extend the life of the battery but it is not required to have it last the typical life span.

What is recommended is to have your battery tested every year as part of your maintenance schedule. This test is almost always free and can alert you of a poor performing battery before it leaves you stranded.

Spring Battery Tip

So we are in Spring and we all know that the Summer heat is right around the corner. What does this mean to you? Well we can just assume we are going to have HOT cars that we want to turn on and cool down as fast as possible. Heat is the hardest thing on a battery so it is a good idea to make sure yours will perform so that you can get you vehicle cooled down.

Also this is the time most of us are taking the boat out of storage, cleaning it up, and getting ready to go to the lake. It never is a bad idea to test the battery so you are not on the ramp ready to go with the cooler full of goodies and then the engine doesn’t want to start.

Most authorized Interstate Batteries Dealers will test your battery for free to make sure you are not stuck on the side of the road or in the middle of the lake. They will check the fluid levels, verify voltage, and perform a load test to ensure it will work the way you need it to in the most extreme weather.

Alkaline Battery

Did you know?
 
Interstate Batteries of Lake Havasu has access to over 16,000 batteries. We work with all kinds of batteries making us a one stop shop for your battery needs. Most homes and businesses use more batteries than you would think. We wanted to take this opportunity to take a look at the most common business battery, the Alkaline.

So what makes us different than a typical alkaline battery vendor?

• We are a local small business working hard to keep AZ money in the state
• Approximately ½ the cost of large retailers
• An example is the average cost of a AA battery is $0.80 – $1.00 at most retail stores. Your cost is $0.54 per battery cutting your costs.

Common Alkaline Products

Size       QTY         Cost
AA      24 Pack      $12.99
AA      144 Case    $57.60
AAA   24 Pack      $12.99
AAA   144 Case    $57.60
C         12 Pack      $12.99
D         12 Pack      $12.99 
9V       8 Pack        $16.99

With us being around half the cost of batteries you are currently using this may end up being a good opportunity for you to give us a try. If you do not want to order the larger packs of batteries that is fine, we also carry them in the typical 2 or 4 packs you see at the store as well. Just give us a call for pricing on any battery.
