There's a battery dealer several miles from my house. I buy batteries for
our ICE cars from them because they carry East Penn brand, which I like.
But that's not their big money maker. They're in a kind of low-income
neighborhood with a thriving population of aging Detroit Land Yachts.
Their
big turnover is in "refurbished" batteries, which they sell for $20-30
each.
I asked one of their techs once, "So, just how do you refurbish a battery?"
"We charge it," he replied.
