Towing Chicago | Rastowing

A very common cause of stranded cars u2013 leading to calls to Towing Chicago for our expert roadside assistance service u2013 issues with car batteries in the Winter. Wintertime cold weather can severely affect the ability of vehicle batteries to perform correctly due to battery degradation. Hereu2019s a guide to how cold weather affects your caru2019s battery. No matter what type of battery or battery banks your car has u2013 whether it be nickel cadmium, lithium polymer, or lead acid u2013 they require a proper balance of chemical components to work effectively. All batteries are made of components including cathodes, anodes, electrolytes, separators, and collectors. To explain it basically, batteries work by freeing up a group of electrons and creating an electrical current through electrochemical reactions that occur within the cathode and anode of the battery surrounded by the electrolyte solution. http://www.rastowing.com/

These issues are connected, and occur to all batteries over time, but much faster in cold weather. Sulfating is caused when the acid solution sulfate of a battery coats the cellu2019s plates, which makes it so that the battery cannot hold and/or release electricity. Undercharging occurs when a fan belt is slipping, a voltage regulator is damaged, an alternator is degrading, or when the engine is used for too many short trips u2013 basically, it means that the battery doesnu2019t get enough of a charge when the engine is running, and develops a symptom called memory effect. Memory effect describes the situation when the sulfate is not sent electrically into the electrolyte, which makes it so the battery cannot fully charge. Cold Winter temperatures make all these issues much worse u2013 especially in older batteries that were already experiencing these processes to a light degree. http://www.rastowing.com/
