Rainey Battery of Asheville — Local services in Asheville

Showed up with my F250 6.0 ( which takes 2 batteties ) called ahead to make sure they had them. I got there about 25 minutes later and before I could get the front door open....Chris was taking the battery out of my hands, grabbed the other new Ultra Start Gold and took it out to the truck. Now before I could even get the new battery hooked back up ( and it's as simple on this F250 as you can get ) he put the other new battery down right where I needed it, left a pair of battery lifting clamps there as well to pick up the old battery out of my truck and take inside. Now, I researched, researched and researched and researched and....you get the picture. If you want a great battery I can tell you EAST PENN MANUFACTURING ( a family owned business in the Ole U.S.A.) makes, in my opinion the absolute best battery there is. East Penn also makes Duracell. Same battery, made at the same plant but oh...the vast difference in price makes Ultra Start my #1 choice. Now....I sorta challenged Chris with all my " GOOGLE " wisdom and well.....Chris in a very nice way made me look as if I just graduated Kindergarten in battery knowledge and manufactures. It's such a blessing to go somewhere now a days and find someone who is selling a product that don't only just know thier product up and down but through extensive experience knows the other manufactures batteries just as well. If you need a new battery and don't go to Rainey Battery Asheville, I'm not saying you'll be sorry if you dont,, but I know you...

Wanted a Samsung battery shipped to my home in Waynesville...they tell me they have one in stock..I say great ! Can ya ship it to me?...He says,...let me check, I'll call ya right back ! They never call back ! I call next day and they tell me, I can't ship it in an envelope with bubble wrap cause the shipping company says it's against the rules, has to be a special box that will cost more than the damn battery ! I order from Dorcy, same price and...WITH FREE SHIPPING !!! They also shipped it in a bubble wrap envelope...Imagine that !! What's the sense of having a web site if ya can't order something on line, that comes with an elaborate excuse as to WHY they can't accommodate a customer ! I'd have to drive 60 miles round trip for an $8 battery which is nuts ! Trying to help this customer....was Yuge Fail !! Too much competition to shop...

Came here to Chris because my car was having trouble starting (thought it was the battery). Chris hooked it up and told me the battery was fine and helped me troubleshoot the problem for 20mins or so once the car didn’t start. He gave me a cold water and was extremely helpful while I got my car towed to a shop. They sell Deka batteries here which are NC made and very reasonably priced for how good and reliable they are. Cannot recommend these guys enough, go see Chris for all your...
