The Time is Right to Service Battery Starting and Charging Systems KENOSHA, Wis. (Dec. 20, 2016) - Snap-on is offering specials on the tools and equipment technicians need to keep battery, starting and charging systems ready to start and power vehicles. The time is right to make sure shop tools like system testers, chargers and auxiliary supplies are ready for the winter weather months ahead.

"The season's cold can impact battery, starter and alternator performance. It's often a critical situation when you need to diagnose these issues," says Snap-on product manager, David Brekke. "Snap-on is proud to offer these much needed battery service items all in one flyer, and at the optimal time and the best prices of the year."

The Snap-on® EEBC500 Battery Charger Plus™ is a rugged 300A engine-starting powerhouse with an exclusive flash reprogramming power supply that maintains consistent OEM specified voltage up to 60A. It offers fully automatic operation with microprocessor-controlled algorithms to optimize the charge cycle without overcharging, and manual mode is available for timed charging. The digital display, outlets for additional accessories and storage compartment for tools make it a high-functioning addition for busy techs.

Superior accuracy is the hallmark of the Snap-on® EECS750 Advanced Battery System Tester. Test results for batteries, starters and charging systems are viewable in real-time graphs on the full-color 3.5" screen. Test printouts are customizable with the addition of shop information as an option. On-screen commands and printouts are in 8 selectable languages. The EECS750 has 10' long cables and a retractable under-hood hanger.
