If you're a professional technician or mechanic, you know that Snap-On tools are an investment in quality and performance. But when your Snap-On battery starts losing its charge, you might wonder whether it's time to replace it or if there's a better option.
The answer is simple: battery rebuilding offers a cost-effective, environmentally friendly alternative that can restore your tools to like-new performance.
The Problem with Dead Snap-On Batteries
Snap-On cordless tools are built to last, but their batteries don't always keep up. Whether you're using a CTB3187 18V battery, a CTB4147C 14.4V battery, or one of the diagnostic tool batteries like the EAA0273B05A Modis battery, eventually the cells inside will degrade.
When this happens, you're faced with expensive replacement costs that can run hundreds of dollars per battery. For professionals with multiple tools, this adds up quickly.
How Battery Rebuilding Works
Battery rebuilding is a process where we replace the worn-out cells inside your existing battery pack with brand-new, high-quality cells. The original housing, circuit board, and connectors are retained, ensuring perfect compatibility with your tools.
Our Snap-On battery rebuilding service covers a wide range of models, from compact 7.2V batteries like the CTB5172 to powerful 18V packs like the CTB4187 and CTB4187A.
Benefits of Rebuilding vs. Replacing
Cost Savings: Rebuilding typically costs 40-60% less than buying a new OEM battery, allowing you to keep more money in your toolbox.
Environmental Impact: By rebuilding instead of replacing, you're keeping battery housings and electronics out of landfills and reducing the demand for new manufacturing.
Same-Day Productivity: While you're waiting for your battery to be rebuilt, you can continue working with your other batteries. The turnaround is quick and efficient with the average turn-around time being just a few business days.
Extended Tool Life: Your Snap-On tools are built to last decades. Don't let a dead battery force you to retire a perfectly good tool.
