Ring helps to SuperCharge sales

The last thing most vehicle owners want to think about when the sun is shining is preventative measures to keep batteries in top condition for the winter months, but as the saying goes, prevention is better than the cure and that is exactly the advice that technicians and mechanics should be giving to their customers.

What many vehicle owners will not realise is that advancements in vehicles electrics have placed an increasing demand on car batteries, which in turn means that regular maintenance should become a priority when cars, vans and trucks are serviced.

Supporting the technician, and providing accessories that offer market leading performance, Ring has a range of chargers from standard linear chargers through to the most advanced SmartChargers for the most efficient testing, reconditioning and charging of batteries.

Going through the battery maintenance process, Ring has an accessory for each stage; Battery Analysers, Booster Cables, Power Packs, Trade Chargers and SmartChargers.

The RSC612 from Ring is a multi-award winning SmartCharger and has become popular with mechanics working on vehicles of all sizes. With settings for both standard vehicles and start/stop this piece of equipment includes battery repair tools to increase performance and battery life along with alternator analysis functions.

A start power test measures voltage drop during engine start to identify any battery issues, alternator check tests the recharging performance of the vehicle alternator and the battery cranking performance measures the battery’s cold cranking performance to determine engine starting ability.

Fit for purpose the RSC612 has a charging current up to 12A, battery capacity 12-300Ah, an interactive LCD display and memory saver function to allow vehicle and audio settings to be retained if the battery is removed.

Head of Marketing for Ring, Henry Bisson said: “We have a full range of products that can be used by mechanics and technicians to pass on peace of mind to vehicle owners. It can be difficult to explain how important battery care is and certainly when the measures that are put in place are preventative.

“With a full range of products on offer, not only do we supply to motor factors that support professional mechanics and vehicle technicians, but we also encourage nationwide factors and retailers to stock products so that the customer can continue to carry out routine battery maintenance at home.”
