<\/p>\nAs motorcycle enthusiasts will now be taking the wraps off their machines and thinking about hitting the open road, many will find the battery has given up the ghost over the winter, so will need a replacement.<\/p>\n
According to Ecobat Battery, this provides wholesalers with the opportunity to not just supply a like for like replacement, but to upsell these customers to a battery of superior performance and greater profit margin.<\/p>\n
Although unlike the leisure fraternity, many of whom will upgrade their battery almost on a whim, the average rider will not replace the battery spontaneously. Ecobat Battery says that when a replacement is required, they are generally very receptive to the idea of upgrading the standard battery for one that better suits the requirements of their machine and how they use it.<\/p>\n
As a result, the company is encouraging wholesalers to do a little research so that they can prepare themselves to take advantage of these opportunities when they arise.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Due to their comparatively small size, irrespective of whether the replacement is an original equipment (OE) or aftermarket variant, neither will come with more than a one year warranty, so suitability becomes an even more important factor and with its broad brand portfolio, Ecobat Battery can provide wholesalers with multiple options \u2013 Exide, Lucas, Numax, Odyssey and Varta \u2013 across all the current battery technologies.<\/p>\n
Although AGM is increasingly the OE technology, the Ecobat Battery offering also includes Gel batteries, which provide a great solution for machines with high energy demands either as standard or due to added accessories, Lithium with its unrivalled cyclic capacity and lighter weight, and perhaps the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me of motorcycle options, the Odyssey Powersport range.<\/p>\n
Odyssey is renowned for its TPPL (thin plate pure lead) technology, which contributes to its batteries having twice the power and three times the lifespan to one of conventional design.<\/p>\n
By introducing the TPPL solution into a motorcycle battery, Odyssey has developed a three part range that is engineered to meet the rugged demands of not just two wheeled machines, but for ATV\/UTV and watercraft applications as well.<\/p>\n
Despite being designed in the United States with the high cranking demands of Harley Davidson applications in mind, these Odyssey Powersport AGM batteries provide a great solution for any machine that requires a battery of large capacity and extreme vibration resistance, but also delivers the added benefit of a prolonged lifespan.<\/p>\n
Naturally, in addition to the wide range of options it provides, Ecobat Battery says it can also help wholesalers when it comes to gaining the knowledge they require to tackle questions and address the needs of the motorcycle community.<\/p>\n
