Shell announces jump starters, chargers

Shell battery recharger

The average vehicle battery lasts for three to five years, and studies have found that most dead batteries can be traced to common issues like extreme cold or hot temperatures, corrosion and electric drain. Over the years, drivers have had to rely on roadside assistance to come assist with a dead battery. Drivers can take their vehicle’s battery health into their own hands and quickly jump start or recharge with Shell’s high-quality, portable jump starters and battery charger and maintainers.

Shell jump starters feature high starting currents that can jump start both diesel and gas engines and have built-in flashlights, SOS lights as well as USB ports for fast charging mobile devices.
