- CJCharva JolliffeAug 5, 20255.0I needed a battery, they help get the right one, also installed it for me, in about 3 mins. Very helpful
- MSMelissa SNov 3, 20234.0Stopped in at the Gettysburg store today and was greeted by Ethan. He changed my battery quickly, was patient, and pleasant to deal with. Sadly, he assured me it was okay to drive immediately and a half mile up the street my car stalled at a busy traffic light. Sat there with hazards on, blocking traffic for 5ish minutes before I could get it to start again. Despite his advice, the battery indeed needed more time to charge before driving away.

A traditional lead/acid car battery can range between $60-$120. The difference in cost comes from a variety of things, like the size of the vehicle or any special requirements needed from the battery, i.e. an increased resistant to cold or hot climates. The type of battery also has an affect on the price whether it be a lead/acid, calcium, lithium-ion, deep-cycle.
HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
