Eastern Pennsylvania - Local Battery and Charger Source
I want to start by saying, I LOVE ANDYMARK!!! But,
I recently found an excellent company located in Quakertown, PA that can get the Enersys NP18-12 batteries in about a week. They also have a variety of chargers, and can deliver these items in one of their normal runs to your area. Also, If your school or organization is a member of COSTARS (Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's Cooperative Purchasing Program) there are deep discounts on the batteries and chargers. The company name is: Warehouse Battery Outlet, Inc. www.completebattery.com Timothy C. Ruth 33 S. 14th St. Quakertown, PA 18951 (215) 538-3112 (800) 953-6664 Fax (215) 538-7313 |

Re: Eastern Pennsylvania - Local Battery and Charger Source
Just a word of caution: Make sure it is the exact brand and model battery. I have seen many posts on CD where a supplier said they could deliver such a battery, and it turned out to be a different manufacturer's "equivalent" product.
While these are generally electrically the same, the rules from 2012 were very specific, and I don't anticipate the 2013 rules to be different. It only takes a specific question to verify they are supplying the Enersys brand and not an equivalent. Good find though! ![]() |

Re: Eastern Pennsylvania - Local Battery and Charger Source
Akash: I only received a qoute based on COSTARS pricing. $39.50 per battery, and the GO Charge 3 bank charger for $153.85. A note of caution: your organization has to be a member of COSTARS to get that pricing.
Don: They are an Enersys supplier. I confirmed with the vendor that they are specifically the Enersys NP18-12. Hope this information helps. Thanks, Eric |

Re: Eastern Pennsylvania - Local Battery and Charger Source
Eric,
To add to don's concern we have had teams in the past receive the FR battery which is fire rated. The Q&A in the past has stated this battery was not legal. I don't know why, it is the same battery with a slightly different material in the case. Just be sure if you buy it before kickoff. |

We received the batteries and they are exact legal versions of the FIRST FRC battery
