hat Deltran tag line from a few years back is more important now than ever. The “pretenders” are out in force, little battery chargers advertising all the attributes and features of a Deltran Battery Tender while delivering few if any of them. The “big box” stores are packed with these things offered at almost giveaway prices, and while some might look the part don’t let your customers be fooled. More often than not those “pretenders” are just poor copies of outdated technology. They might work for a while, sort of, but then again they might not work at all. In some cases the “float” cycle of the charger/maintenance program will be non-existent and that little charger, left unattended, will end up doing more harm than good. A battery could be overheated, overcharged, boiled over and ruined. Some economy there.
     Spare your customers that needless frustration. With prices starting at just $39.95 a genuine Deltran Battery Tender isn’t going to break anyone’s budget. And that forty bucks buys the real thing, a Battery Tender that you know is going to do what it says it will. Deltran guarantees it, for up to 10 years on some models. You can be assured that a real Battery Tender will be packing the very latest, up-to-the-minute technology, too. Deltran works closely with all the major battery manufacturers to keep current with the newest batteries. The charging/maintenance programs inside a Battery Tender reflect that. The programs are constantly rewritten, re-mapped and upgraded to keep pace with what’s happening in the battery market. A genuine Battery Tender with its automatic multi-step charging/maintenance program will never overcharge or overheat a battery or cause one to out-gas or boil over. A Battery Tender is completely compatible with and safe to use on all types of batteries, too, flooded lead-acid to AGM. All of this is a world removed from those knockoff look-alikes.
     There’s a full lineup of genuine Battery Tenders to choose from, everything from that $39.95 Battery Tender Jr. to a big 5.0 Amp Power Tender Plus. They’re all fully automatic and foolproof, all able to bring a battery up to full charge and then–safely cycling through a “float” mode–keep it there indefinitely. The real Battery Tenders all come in bright, eye-catching clamshell packaging that’s easy to stock, display and sell and with the holiday season right around the corner any one of those Deltran Battery Tenders makes a great gift for a motorsports enthusiast. Let your customers know the difference between a real Battery Tender and one of the “pretenders.”
