Blind Devotion

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007

 

Bulk batteries are one of those newfangled ideas whose time has come.   Like automatic car windows and TV remote controls, they’re the kind of thing that once you start using you can’t imagine living without.  If you haven’t ever ordered a box of bulk batteries, try it.  You’ll be amazed at what a relief it is to have fresh batteries on hand when the power goes out!

But of course time, and improved battery technology, waits for no man and as indispensable as alkaline batteries are, at Medic Batteries we’re getting more and more orders for Energizer Lithium AA batteries.  So since talking to our customers is one of the highlights of our day, we asked one of them!

Medic Batteries Customer Service:  “You’ve been an alkaline loyalist for years, buying hundreds of batteries at a time.  Why the switch to Energizer Lithium AA batteries?”

Satisfied Customer: “I manage a large, luxury office building containing high quality, but even higher current Hunter Douglas Power-Rise Shades in which we regularly installed alkaline AA batteries.  Recently we realized we were buying so many boxes of alkaline batteries we would soon have to lease them space.  We would never order from anyone but Medic Batteries so we decided to give your Energizer Lithium AA batteries a try.  Our new Energizer Lithium AA batteries arrived, as your batteries always do, on time and in perfect condition. They’ve been powering our blinds ever since we installed them!

Medic Batteries Customer Service:  “Well at least now we know that just because we haven’t heard from you doesn’t mean you’re buying batteries from someone else – you just don’t need new batteries as often!”

This customer is right.  Energizer Lithium AA batteries really are great batteries at a great prices.  If you’ve never tried a Energizer Lithium AA, check out our 16 pack lithium battery assortment.  It contains 12 Energizer Lithium AA and 4 Energizer Lithium AAA batteries for $41.60/pack or $2.60/each.  And there’s nothing newfangled about that kind of good old fashioned savings.

What is the difference between a Duracell Procell and a Duracell Coppertop battery?

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

Believe it or not, the technical specs for Duracell Coppertop and Duracell Procell batteries are identical. Duracell Procell batteries are Duracell’s line of batteries designed for industrial, professional use. Duracell Procell batteries are packaged for the volume user. Procell batteries are not sold in blister packs. Fresh Duracell Procell batteries are typically charged a bit higher (a fresh 9V Procell battery is typically at 9.5 volts or higher) than the Duracell Coppertop.

How to choose the best replacement batteries? Duracell Procell, Energizer or a Cheap-o brand

Thursday, September 20th, 2007

Best advice from the pros on buying replacement batteries is to stay away from cheap-o batteries. Quality is most important when it comes to buying replacement batteries! Many lesser-known brands are cheaper for a reason. These brands cut corners when they make their batteries. That can affect the overall life expectancy and performance of the battery. Worse, the batteries may be defective because most low-end battery manufacturers are not concerned with quality control.

How do you choose the best performing battery? Go with a recognized brand such as Duracell Procell, Energizer, Ultralife and buy from a reputable source.

The dependability of a battery relies more on the battery distributor than most people realize because while most batteries may look the same on the outside, only a reputable company can guarantee the quality of a battery on the inside. 

When you buy Duracell Procell batteries, Energizer batteries and Ultralife batteries from Medic Batteries, for example, every battery is 100% guaranteed.  Duracell Procell, Energizer and Ultralife batteries at Medic are always properly stored in a cool, dry warehouse, and are shipped immediately after the order is placed in most cases.  Have a Duracell Procell, Energizer or Ultralife battery question?  99% of the time, you WILL reach a person – NOT an answering machine at Medic Batteries!  Why buy Duracell Procell, Energizer, Ultralife batteries anywhere else? 

Bulk Batteries - Powering Otoscopes

Saturday, September 15th, 2007

We human beings are more alike than we realize.  We could all use a vacation, we’re all familiar with Harry Potter, and we all secretly dream about trying out for American Idol.  But those are just the obvious things we have in common.  How about this?  We all have been examined by an otoscope.

A what?  An otoscope.  Most of us use the layman’s term – “That thing doctors use to look in your ears”, but regardless of the terminology, these devices are as attached to doctors as M.D.  Veterinarians use them too because, powered by batteries in the handle, otoscopes are a portable way to shed light not only on ears, but on throats, eyes and noses as well.

Otoscopes are turned on and off hundreds of times a day which is why more and more physicians and veterinarians are buying batteries in bulk. These professionals have no time to dig in drawers so keeping a solid supply of bulk batteries handy just makes sense.  But in addition to the convenience, buying batteries in bulk is a smart choice for other reasons.

Bulk batteries from Medic Batteries:

  1. Top quality, genuine brands like Duracell, Energizer and Ultralife
  2. Terrific, cost efficient rates for bulk batteries
  3. Same day shipping when buying batteries in bulk
  4. 100% guarantee on all bulk batteries

In recent years, otoscope optical technology has improved dramatically.  Greater magnification and improved light quality mean bulk batteries from Medic Batteries are more vital than ever to medical professionals.  Buying batteries in bulk from us means we focus on providing the power so doctors and vets can focus on their patients.
