RE: SOLAR AGM BATTERIES - Finding Them Cheap - Ordering Batteries Online IS CHEAPER! [DTUBE VIDEO]
I know its highly recommended to go deep cycle, but I have been getting "New" one year old batteries from car dealerships that change out a battery after its sat in a brand new car not sold for a year right before they deliver it to the new customer. I tell you its still packs a huge spark after only one year, but see they can't warranty it anymore so they exchange for a brand new one and sell the old "new" battery which are usually 99% good! There are literally tons of these batteries available on the market now because car sale are tapering off
Good info! Does someone just contact the dealerships for those batteries?
The dealerships will never sell them to you directly. What you have to do is find out when the "guy" company picks up these old batteries from the service/parts manager. Once you have that information plan on being there and waiting for the "guy" to arrive. Once you make contact, offer to buy a battery or a few(start around 50% of what a new one costs). Some of the time these battery recycler guys are also the managers or owners of the company and may sell them to you off the back of the van. btw, this does not work with all places as some dealerships have different arrangements with their suppliers.
