Does Hybrid Battery Conditioning Really Work?
  • Anyone that is even remotely familiar with
    hybrid vehicles is aware that even with the many
    benefits they give, there are some potential
    drawbacks that are necessary to consider. One of
    these drawbacks, according to mechanics and
    consumers, seems to be with their battery's
    longevity, power and all-mighty gas mileage over
    time. The drawbacks do not affect every consumer
    and every hybrid on the road - and there are
    plenty. Current reports estimate some two million
    hybrid-gas-electric and diesel-electric vehicles
    on the road in 2013 and the EIA estimates that in
    2011, there were nearly 11 million alternative
    fuel vehicles in the United States. With that
    many hybrids driven, there are bound to be some
    battery issues and most have to do with loss of
    power and gas mileage.

  • Most consumers are willing to take the risks and
    many warranties have extended battery coverage to
    100,000 in many cases. Most batteries will last
    well beyond those estimates and can continue to
    perform as new. But there are some batteries
    which even after this amount of life just need
    some new life breathed into them. If a hybrid car
    experiences a battery failure outside of its
    warranty, however, the owner is on his or her own
    when it comes to battery replacement. Consumers
    who are not aware of the hybrid battery
    conditioning option may find themselves in awe at
    current hybrid battery prices, some climbing over
    4,000. Dr. Mark Quarto and his team at the
    Automotive Research and Design have developed
    technology that can restore a hybrid battery to
    over 95 of its original performance.

  • The technology sounds quite mind-blowing, but
    the question remains - does it work? Many
    consumers are anxious to save thousands of
    dollars with hybrid battery conditioning rather
    than replacing their old battery. Not only are
    financial savings evident, but many hybrid owners
    are anxious to enjoy the environmental benefits
    of this exclusive technology as was one of the
    original factors in why they purchased a hybrid
    in the first place. Dr. Mark Quarto is an expert
    in hybrid battery conditioning and states that
    his proprietary technology will change the hybrid
    industry. His familiarity with nickel metal
    hydride, lithium technologies and the history of
    hybrid development makes for some very
    interesting and research-based finds.

  • If you notice that your hybrid has less power
    than ever before, or that your fuel efficiency is
    far below your normal range, your battery
    capabilities may be under some sort of failure or
    deterioration. How does a hybrid battery lose
    performance capabilities? There are two systems
    that can impact your hybrid's acceleration. Of
    course, when it comes to traditional cars you
    only have one propulsion system composed of the
    engine which goes on gasoline. With a hybrid, you
    have the engine with gasoline and then you have
    an electric propulsion or traction system. Both
    must work together in order to make your hybrid
    what it is. There are times where the hybrid
    battery pack may be low on energy and power. When
    you begin the acceleration process, the hybrid
    requires that electric traction system to make
    the vehicle go. If that battery pack isn't
    providing the proper amount of energy, you may
    feel the hybrid hesitate or seem more sluggish
    than usual. If you can identify the cause or work
    with an auto repair shop specialized in finding
    solutions for diminishing batteries or
    acceleration issues, your hybrid can continue to
    last you for many years.

  • That is why battery conditioning is gaining so
    much popularity. Hybrid owners can immediately
    enjoy their vehicle's performance again. The
    hybrid battery conditioning is straightforward
    and costs a fraction of the cost of a new
    battery. This alone is what consumers are most
    excited for, and rightfully so. There are
    thousands of old hybrid batteries filling up
    landfills across the country. In order to make a
    difference on the environment, as most hybrid
    drivers want to do, so hybrid battery
    conditioning can help eliminate landfill waste.
  • At an average cost of 4,000 to 4,500, this is
    a significant investment that essentially
    eliminates the reason for buying a hybrid
    vehicle. Hybrid vehicles tend to be a little more
    expensive upfront but are not necessarily more
    expensive to maintain during their lifetime,
    unless you need to replace the battery after the
    warranty is up. Hybrid battery conditioning
    eliminates this drawback by costing less and
    giving your vehicle more life. Because the hybrid
    battery is an integral part of the vehicle's
    operation, it is often compared to the vehicle's
    transmission. Most hybrid batteries do not need
    to be replaced. In fact, 60-80 of hybrid
    batteries which were bought new didn't have to be
    replaced when they were not performing well (when
    under warranty or not).

  • The battery system is much more complex,
    however. The hybrid battery is not one entity but
    a pack of battery modules. The battery pack is
    what gives the vehicle its power. Without this
    battery pack, a hybrid driver cannot and would
    not get the power or the fuel efficiency it
    claims. The Toyota Prius battery, for example,
    consists of 28 individual modules and when there
    is a battery pack issue, it is most likely due to
    one of the modules, not all of them. Each of the
    28 modules has its own health state and at any
    given time they can be at a different state. Over
    time, the battery modules in the worst state in
    that pack end up triggering a diagnostic code and
    that sometimes can force a dealer or repair shop
    to replace the battery. However it may be that
    one or two of the modules need to be replaced and
    not the entire pack or the battery could just be
    imbalanced or low on capacity. Low capacity is
    where battery conditioning comes into play and is
    very common. Conditioning means that the pack is
    cycled (top charge taken down to zero then back
    to 100). This is good for the battery pack and
    the cells but can also help diagnose any pack
    issues.

  • All in all, hybrid battery replacement is one of
    the most critical issues facing hybrid drivers.
    With hybrid battery conditioning as effective and
    as efficient as it is, drivers have another
    option for extending the lifetime of their hybrid
    and supporting a cleaner environment.
    Reconditioning a battery has been found to add
    about six years to the vehicle for one-fourth of
    the price of replacing the entire battery pack.
    It has been proven to improve fuel efficiency and
    increase power and has been highly recommended by
    consumers all over. Is it worth a shot?
    Absolutely. When shops can guarantee the
    advantages mentioned above, it is well worth it.
