We've all been there. You're ready to head out - be it to hit the open road, or to run errands - and the turning of the key in the ignition delivers a resounding sound of disappointment. The vehicle won't turn over. Your battery is dead, or at the very least, isn't holding enough charge to start the vehicle. If your vehicle has been stored away for a while, or even if it isn't used regularly, a battery tender is essential for maintaining the health and longevity of vehicle batteries.

These devices employ a smart charging system that delivers a slow, steady charge to the battery, preventing it from discharging completely and thus avoiding potential damage from sulfation in the process. Sulfation occurs when lead sulfate crystals build up on the battery plates, reducing its capacity and lifespan. By keeping the battery at an optimal charge level, a battery tender helps preserve its performance and ensures the vehicle starts reliably when needed, saving both time and money on premature battery replacements. It's an often under-looked part of vehicular maintenance that can prevent costly and inconvenient headaches down the road. The good news, is preventative battery tenders don't have to break the bank. Investing in one is as easy as visiting  / Hyperion, a leader in the battery and related electronics industry.

If you're looking to get ahead of your battery before it ages prematurely, you can pickup a variety of battery tender options, from wall-mounted controls to mountable solar-powered battery tenders.

JY Power HP-40 Lithium Battery /technology/batteries-power/jy-power-hp-40-lithium-battery /technology/batteries-power/jy-power-hp-40-lithium-battery

Two of the most recognized names in the Basshead community announced a joining of forces today. Lithium battery powerhouse JY Power and basshead-first online retailer Down4Sound.com.

JY Power鈥檚 new lithium battery - the HP-40 鈥 has been the talk of the car audio competition world since its announcement.  On their , the battery is touted as 鈥減ound-for-pound the most powerful battery鈥 the brand has ever released. A single 15-pound HP-40 delivers triple the power and storage capacity of a standard Group 31 AGM car battery. 

Travis Young is co-Founder of JY Power, and the architect of the newly formed partnership. 鈥淚t's a mutually beneficial relationship. It allows us to work in a way where they are completely self-sufficient. All of their sales and promotions are handled internally, which gives us the luxury of concentrating on product development and working more directly with brick and mortar stores.鈥 

Borne by enthusiasts, for enthusiasts, Down4sound.com is the premier online destination for sound pressure fans nationwide. D4S founder Jojnathan Price credits the company鈥檚 success to a love of basshead lifestyle and raw perseverance. 鈥淚 started out going to shows, inspired by what I saw Steve Meade doing online. As I gained some popularity, people started asking me where I got my gear, which motivated me to start my own store.鈥 

After acquiring top-tier names in the space including Sundown, Crescendo and Deaf Bonce, Price eventually moved the operation from Mississippi to Las Vegas where it currently resides. The company now carries more than XX thousand products, including their own line of car audio gear.

鈥淲e want to be a one-stop shop for people,鈥 said Price. 鈥淚 had always heard good things about JY, and with the release of the HP-40, the time was right.鈥 To kick off the relationship, Down4Sond.com has also confirmed it intends to do a series of videos and giveaways in the future.

KnuKonceptz Ultimate Battery Terminal /technology/batteries-power/knukonceptz-advanced-terminals-101 /technology/batteries-power/knukonceptz-advanced-terminals-101

Good sound starts at the battery. Getting the current to your amps is all about the best connection: read how Knu Konceptz is making the most of your power supply.

Your battery is the heart of your cars electrical system, and wires? The wires are every bit the arteries 鈥 but there is one vital 鈥 and often trivialized - component in between them:  the terminals. Your terminals are more than shiny connectors, sitting on your battery.  Often, they are the 鈥渨eakest link鈥 in the path to your amplifier, without your even knowing it. 

Your terminals have to be the most conductive, durable, heat resistant and weather resistant products in your entire audio system. Oh 鈥 and they have to actually fit under your hood.  That isn鈥檛 always the case, and you almost always find out the hard way 鈥 after you鈥檝e bought them.

The interconnect specialists at have approached the concept with vigor - and no small amount of R&D - to create their . KnuKonceptz studied 鈥渃ountless terminal options鈥 while developing the Ultimate Battery Terminal, according to their website. 

鈥淭he concept around the UBT was to integrate the OEM battery terminal, in case it was a lease or you weren鈥檛 comfortable removing the factory terminal and crimping a new wire on鈥 says KnuKonceptz President Bill Greenberg. 鈥淣ot everybody has the right tools to safely attach wires properly. Using a pair of pliers isn鈥檛 ideal, and not everyone has a hydraulic crimper to attach a 1/0 or 4 AWG terminal. You don鈥檛 have to worry about the car failing because of an improperly terminated factory battery terminal.鈥

The terminal is made to SAE specs, which prevents accidentally using a positive terminal on the wrong battery pole (by making them different diameters). The terminal holds 1/0, 4 gauge and 8 gauge wires with set screws, plus a ring terminal port on the side.

The port is notable, as it doubles as a side-mounted top post adapter. For people that are leasing a car or simply do not want to part with the factory terminal/wiring, the adapter is used to side mount the connection. In addition to the convenience of that connection, the side-mounted nature of the adapter ensures that the hood will never hit the post, no matter how close it is to the battery. 

Cross-threading and over-tightening the set screws are among the most common installation issues when getting a battery terminal to stay on a post. With many competitive products, you鈥檙e in for some serious work to fix the problem, if your overly-enthusiastic screwdriver brings the installation to a grinding halt. Pun intended.

If it happens, settle in.  It鈥檚 going to take some serious time trying to remove the bolt 鈥 or worse 鈥 you may have to drill out the bolt. The odds you are going to replace the entire terminal 鈥 assuming you can get the terminal off the post in the first place. KnuKonceptz uses brass pins, inserted through the bottom of the terminal to connect with the bolt, making repair quick and easy if a pin requires replacement. Problem solved.

If you want to understand Knu鈥檚 priorities, all you have to do is look on the UTB web page. 鈥淥ur top priority was a bulletproof battery post clamping system that would never fail.鈥 This combination of low clearance height (barely 1鈥 with the cover on), expandability and 鈥 of course 鈥 conductivity makes it an obvious connection to consider.

Once you鈥檝e read over the KnuKonceptz page, watch the incredibly practical video review of the UBT terminal in action on 鈥檚 YouTube Page.

New Axxess Integrate STOP/START Engine Override Interfaces Are Shipping /technology/batteries-power/new-axxess-integrate-stop-start-engine-override-interfaces-are-shipping /technology/batteries-power/new-axxess-integrate-stop-start-engine-override-interfaces-are-shipping

Offer drivers the option to override or re-engage the STOP/START feature automatically, whether they have a factory or aftermarket radio installed.

Why Drivers May Want This:

Many new vehicles equipped with a factory Engine Stop Start (ESS) feature do not include a turn-off. Although this feature is meant to save fuel and reduce emissions, the annoyance of your engine turning off at every stop sign is too much for some. Especially larger motors where the engine noise turning on and off is quite loud, and you feel a strong vibration every time the engine cranks again. Another downside is when the outside temperature is high, the air conditioning system does not work nearly as well with the engine stops. A long traffic light can make the interior temperature uncomfortable. Axxess has the answer with the NEW patent-pending STOP/START Override Interface!

An Easy Installation

The vehicle type is configured through Axxess Updater PC software and a simple four-wire installation is done at the radio location.

AXSSO

  • Allows the override of the STOP/START engine feature
  • The factory STOP/START button can resume the STOP/START feature
  • Can be used with either a factory or aftermarket radio

MSRP

  • $97.00 USD
