Start-stop technology in cars has been on the rise over the past decade as emissions and environmental concerns mount. In 2013, about 2% of passenger cars came equipped with start-stop systems. That number grew to more than 50% of all new gasoline non-hybrid vehicles in 2023, according to the 2024 EPA Automotive Trends Report.
Your car’s Lead Acid battery is a marvel, with technology that dates back to the 1850s. But the chemistry and components that make it work — like corrosive acid and lead — can also present potential hazards if improperly handled. When it’s time to dispose of your battery, it’s important to do so in a way that ensures safety, protects the environment and complies with recycling regulations.
Modern car systems like start-stop, infotainment screens and driver-assist all demand a tougher, smarter 12-volt source than a standard Flooded Lead Acid battery. EFBs answer this call.
Consumers and equipment operators are prioritizing smarter, lighter, longer-lasting energy solutions. Lithium, once viewed as a high-end alternative, is now a leading choice for everything from golf carts and pontoons to RVs and utility vehicles.
An EFB is a further development of a conventional wet-cell battery, a technology that has been in use for more than 160 years.
