BATTERY LIFE SAVER PROTECTS YOUR POCKET
AND THE ENVIRONMENT

Battery Life Saver helps golf cart users by making batteries last longer. It handles the main reason batteries go bad — the formation of lead sulfate on the battery plates. It is an electronic device, easy to use; attach it and forget it. It keeps lead sulfate from forming, and can restore “dead,” sulfate-ridden batteries to their original condition.

For the price of one battery, Battery Life Saver handles a full battery bank, and prevents usual battery replacement. Battery Life Saver, thus, protects the pocketbook.

Battery Life Saver also protects the environment. Batteries don’t last long enough. Battery manufacturers say five years, but one is lucky if they last three, especially in warm climates. Some 70 million are discarded every year in the U.S. They don’t, for the most part, end up in land fills. They are recycled and rebuilt by battery manufacturers. This seems good for the environment, except that recycling is mostly done in third world countries, such as Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, the Philippines, Taiwan and Thailand, where environmental precautions are not taken, and lead wastes spill into fields and waterways and can also poison workers.

As stated in the Journal of Metals, by 1987, “the inability to economically install emission controls and purchase liability insurance forced closure of over half of the secondary lead smelters in North America.” It is not profitable to operate recycling plants in industrialized countries, so Australia, Japan, the U.K. as well as the U.S. are having recycling done in third world countries. Greenpeace and other environmental groups are concerned about smoke and ash from battery processing plants rendering rice fields infertile, lead waste poisoning water supplies, workers coughing blood and harmful levels of lead in children’s blood. Even small amounts of lead in children can cause permanent lowering of intelligence, resulting in learning and psychological disorders. It can give them kidney disease and gouty arthritis.

Battery Life Saver will relieve some of the strain on the environment without requiring a vast series of laws and legislation. Conservatively speaking, by increasing battery life by two to three times, Battery Life Saver will cut the number of batteries that need recycling by one-half to one-third of the present day number.

Golf Cart users who purchase and use Battery Life Saver not only save themselves time and money, they help save the environment as well. After all, it is our planet.
