Cold mornings are hard on batteries.

As temperatures drop, a battery that coped all summer can suddenly struggle to turn the engine over. If that happens at 7am on a frosty driveway, or with a van full of deliveries waiting, a booster pack gets you moving without waiting for roadside assistance or flagging down another driver.

We stock Durite battery booster packs for everything from small cars to HGVs, plus compact 12V jump starters from £71.99 ex VAT, and many double as a power bank for your phone.

A few tips for using one safely:

- Read the manufacturer's instructions first
- Switch off all electrics before connecting
- Red clamp to positive, black clamp to negative
- Recharge the pack after every use so it is ready next time

Not sure which pack suits your vehicle? Pop into our shop in Heathfield or give us a call.

It's getting cooler out there!

A flat battery on a cold morning is nobody's idea of a good start to the day.

A portable booster pack lives in your van, cab or boot and gets you going again without waiting for a jump from someone else. We stock booster packs and batteries for cars, vans, HGVs and plant, and we're happy to help you choose the right one.

Not all warning lights are created equal.

Did you know? UK warning lights must comply with ECE R65 standards; they need to emit orange/yellow flashing light and be positioned for 360° visibility at least 1.2m high.

Whether you're in emergency services, roadworks, or commercial transport, proper warning lights save lives.

Read our comprehensive guide on selecting and installing the right warning lights for your needs.

Alternator failing?

Replacement typically costs £250–£800, but refurbishment often saves hundreds. Our specialists assess your unit first and give you a detailed estimate before any work starts, not a blind quote.

Sometimes replacement is the right call. But with worn parts replaced and your unit restored to proper working condition, repair usually wins on cost.

Warning signs: dimming lights, battery going flat, or dashboard warnings. Don't wait until you're stranded.
