Can cold weather cause your battery to die

As battery experts, we often get asked: Can cold weather kill a battery?



While cold temperatures can impact performance, here are some key tips to keep your batteries running smoothly in the frost:

1️. Lowered Capacity: Cold weather reduces a battery’s capacity, leading to shorter runtimes.

2️. Sluggish Start-ups: Cold weather makes it harder for a battery to generate power, causing sluggish start-ups or no start. 

3. Regular Maintenance: Keep an eye on battery health, corrosion, and ensure clean connections.

4. Emergency Preparedness: Carry jumper cables or a portable battery jump starter for unexpected situations.

Stay informed, be prepared, and keep your batteries in good condition even in chilly weather!
