With the freezing weather now upon us, it’s the time of year that call outs for recovery become more frequent. Therefore, Ring Automotive is advising workshops to ensure they’re prepared.


Battery maintenance equipment specialist, Ring Automotive, is urging garages and factors to prepare for a busy battery season by having the correct battery recovery solutions for battery issues in place, including jump starters. 

In the summer, Ring Automotive pointed out that hot weather damages a battery the same, if not more, as the cold weather, as the sun evaporate the vital fluids in a battery and increases internal corrosion. The full effects of this often remain hidden until the temperature drops to freezing in winter. 

Ring has a host of options available that will assist technicians get drivers back on the road or to the workshop quickly and efficiently. For example, Ring’s professional heavy duty Lithium Jump Starter, (RPPL1000) is able to withstand the tough conditions in a workshop, but is also lightweight and compact, so it can be moved quickly and easily to where it is needed.

The RPPL1000 jump starter is for 12V systems with 1000A starting capacity and 1500A peak current. This jump starter is capable of performing multiple starts from just one charge and can be used for all petrol vehicles and diesel engines up to 10-litre capacity, so includes motorcycles, cars, 4x4s, vans, commercial vehicles and boats. It will jump start Lead acid, AGM, Gel and Calcium batteries, all in under 30 seconds.

The unit takes just two hours to recharge with an advanced PD60W charger (sold separately) or four hours via the USB-C charging cable. 

Another tool is the Ring battery analyser (RBAG950), which can provide a complete health check of the battery and electrical systems in both 12V and 24V vehicles, including motorcycles, cars and vans.

This analyser is suitable for 12V lead acid, AGM, EFB, gel and LiFePO4 lithium, as well as start/stop batteries, and the multi-functional unit is able to test the battery, alternator, starter and vehicle earth, via its intuitive graphical interface. The results can then be printed using the built-in thermal printer, viewed on other devices by using the removable SD card, or even through the QR code.

These battery maintenance products are available from Ring stockists nationwide.
