A failing hybrid battery usually announces itself: fuel economy drops, the gas engine runs more than it used to, a warning light comes on. Those same symptoms show up with other faults, so pull the trouble codes before you spend anything. Our trouble code lookup explains what each one means.
Sodium is our top choice for Florida heat, built to perform in temperatures up to 140°F. Sodium also offers the longest expected life of the three at 5-7 years, backed by a 4-year, unlimited-mileage warranty.
Sodium is newer technology, so it is not available for every vehicle yet. Find My Battery will quickly show you if it is available for yours.
Prismatic is the closest match we offer to the battery your hybrid came with, so it drives the way you remember. Built to handle Florida heat, it lasts 4-6 years and comes with a 3-year, unlimited-mileage warranty.
Cylindrical is the most affordable of the three and delivers the strongest power, which you can feel pulling away from a light. It lasts 3-5 years and comes with a 2-year, unlimited-mileage warranty.
This order is for Florida. Each type carries its own warranty, so coverage depends on which battery you choose — the warranty page lists the terms, and the battery technology page has the full side-by-side comparison.
No bay, no lift, no garage. Your driveway, your office lot, wherever the vehicle is sitting.
Tell us the year, make and model. We’ll confirm which batteries fit and what each one costs before anything gets booked.
After your order is confirmed, our scheduling team will work with you to choose and book a convenient date, time, and location that fits your schedule.
A technician shows up with the battery and the tools. Nothing to drop off, no loaner, no waiting room.
Most installs take about an hour. The old battery leaves with the technician and goes back for recycling.
We install across the whole state. If your town isn’t on the list, it’s almost certainly still covered — give us a call.
These are the ones we see most in Florida. We cover plenty more, so it’s worth checking even if yours isn’t here.
Yes. A driveway, an office lot or a curbside space is all it takes — no shop visit, no tow, no garage. Tell us where you are and we’ll confirm the options for your address.
Heat is most of the reason. The hotter a battery gets, the faster it wears out, and the wearing speeds up as it goes. A state that stays warm all year costs a battery a lot more than one with a real winter.
Two reasons, and neither has anything to do with how far you drive. Heat works on a battery whether the vehicle is moving or parked. And a hybrid battery slowly loses charge while it sits, so a vehicle that stands for weeks and then does a short trip never gets topped back up.
The usual signs are worse gas mileage, the engine running more than it used to, less power on hills, and a warning light. Other problems cause the same signs, so read the trouble codes first. Our trouble code lookup tells you what each code means. In this climate the cooling filter clogs sooner than people expect, and a clogged filter causes much the same symptoms, so check the filter too.
You don’t have to work this out alone. Call (888) 473-7265 and we will read the codes with you, rule out anything else it could be, and confirm which battery fits your vehicle before you spend a cent.
Whatever it turns out to be, the vehicle still drives. A worn hybrid battery costs you gas mileage and some power. It does not leave you stranded.
The two numbers measure different things. Ten or twelve years is how long an original takes to fade that far, and it had been losing power for years before you noticed. The figures we give are service life, and we put a warranty behind each one. Sodium runs 5-7 years, prismatic 4-6 and cylindrical 3-5, and none of them has a mileage limit. In Florida heat an original has usually faded sooner than twelve years anyway.
Choose New Module Sodium if it is offered for your vehicle, because nothing we sell handles heat better and it lasts 5-7 years. Choose New Module Prismatic for the nearest match to your original battery. Choose New Module Cylindrical if price comes first. The battery technology page puts the three side by side. If you are not sure, pick any one of them and tell us you would like a quote with all the options for your vehicle, and we will put one together.
Every battery we install is covered, and none of the warranties has a mileage limit. There is nothing to cap, because how far you drive is not what wears a hybrid battery out. How many years you get depends on which battery you choose, and the warranty page has the terms.
Park in the shade whenever you can. On a long errand run, think about where the vehicle sits between stops. Change the cooling filter on schedule, because that filter is the only real maintenance a hybrid battery has. If the vehicle sits for weeks at a time, take it out for a decent drive now and then. A hybrid battery slowly loses charge when nothing is using it, and letting it run all the way down does permanent damage.
