Slow Crank
The engine turns over lazily, especially first start of the day or after sitting.

Battery Testing & Replacement
Find out before the campground does.
Premium battery diagnostic and replacement for chassis and house banks — load testing, terminal restoration, and charging system diagnosis so you know what you actually have.
What's Included
A Voltage Reading Is Not a Battery Test
Here's the thing that surprises most owners: a dying battery can show 12.6 volts sitting still and collapse the instant you ask it for real current. Voltmeters measure potential. Load testers measure truth.
We test under actual load, across both your chassis start batteries and your house bank, and we check whether your charging system is doing its job — because a perfectly good battery bank killed by a failed converter gets replaced by a lot of shops that never checked.
- Individual load testing of every battery in the bank
- State-of-health and state-of-charge assessment
- Terminal, cable and connection inspection and cleaning
- Converter, inverter and alternator charging output verification
- Parasitic draw testing when batteries keep dying mysteriously
- Replacement with properly matched flooded, AGM or lithium batteries
- Correct disposal of your old batteries
If your batteries are fine, we'll tell you they're fine. Selling batteries to people who don't need them is a lousy way to build a reputation.
Warning Signs
Time to Get Tested
Short Boondocking
Your house bank used to last two nights and now barely makes it through one.
Age
Lead-acid RV batteries typically last three to five years in Florida heat. Do the math on yours.
Straight Answers
Battery FAQs
Should I switch to lithium?
It depends on how you camp. If you boondock frequently, lithium is transformative — more usable capacity, far longer life, much lighter. If you're plugged into shore power 95% of the time, quality AGM is often the smarter spend. We'll ask how you actually use the coach before recommending anything.
Why do my batteries keep dying in storage?
Usually parasitic draw, a failed converter, or simple self-discharge with no maintainer. Florida heat accelerates all three. We test for draw and can recommend a maintainer setup that ends the problem.
Can I mix old and new batteries in the bank?
Please don't. A new battery paired with a tired one gets dragged down to the weak one's performance and dies early. Replace banks as a matched set — it's cheaper across the life of the bank.
What Owners Say
About Our Battery Service
★★★★★
"Load tested everything and showed me the numbers. Turned out only two of six needed replacing — another shop had quoted me all six."
Steve G.
★★★★★
"They found a parasitic draw that had been killing my batteries every off-season. Three years of replacing batteries for nothing."
Ed G.
★★★★★
"In and out in a couple hours, chassis and house banks both tested and documented. Easy."
Nancy W.
★★★★★
"Explained how my charging habits were shortening battery life and what to change. Free advice that saved me real money."
