Happy to be on board Parker Rallysport, have a good weekend in the Bay!

With the weather being rubbish this weekend it was a great excuse to spend a couple of days in the shed getting Frank up to speed for Hawkesbay rally. This event has given me good motivation to tidy up and change a few things.

Welcome on board and thank you to DC Power batteries🔋 Palmerston north's locally owned battery specialists, from cars to campervans, always great advice and service from the team in JFK drive.

Proud is an understatement - prouder still to have waded through some tough years in between then and now - what a team 🥰

When the Boss leaves early and you try to tell him this is happening at work….think we almost got him 😅

Beautiful day to have a solar upgrade finished and waiting for pickup, a check out the back, and two partway through jobs inside. We'd love the opportunity to give you more freedom in camping too 🙂

Come and see us for a battery check if it is struggling in this ❄ Delkor batteries have proven their affordability and quality to us for many years🙂

🚗🔋 Every engine start draws power from your battery.

When you only take short trips, the alternator may not run long enough to replace the charge used during starting. Longer drives give the charging system more time to replenish the battery. If your vehicle is not driven often, a compatible battery charger is a reliable way to help keep the battery ready to go.

For extra peace of mind this winter, visit your nearest Delkor® retailer for a quick battery check. It is a simple way to make sure your battery is performing as it should, so you can catch potential issues early and stay on the road with confidence.

Outside DCPower at the moment, head down Connolly Court around to the back of the workshop if you can't get into the front carpark 🙂
