Batteries Plus Bulbs

Came here for an iPad screen replacement — the service and the quality of work were both impeccable! Couldn’t have been happier with how pleasant and communicative everyone was, especially Josh, and the iPad is as good as new.
I shopped around a fair amount before settling on Batters Plus Bulbs and their price was one of the least expensive, especially when you take the 6 month warranty into account.

My laptop was giving me the dreaded «battery not charging» message, and since I wasn’t sure if I needed a new battery or a new charger, instead of taking my chances online, I went to this store. (When I lived in Michigan, I went to Batteries Plus Bulbs all the time — sometimes to buy something and sometimes just to drop off my collection of dead batteries for recycling.) Anyway, my 10-​month old laptop battery was declared just about dead. (Serves me right for expecting longevity from a $ 25 battery from Amazon.) It was replaced and the new battery tested. I also got some great advice on how to prolong battery life. Although the fresh battery was more expensive than the one from Amazon, it is of much better quality and will probably outlast the machine. (There is a 14-​day return policy, too.) I In addition, I really appreciated the friendliness of the staff. While I was there, people were coming in just with questions, not necessarily to buy anything, and all of them got personal attention that didn’t come with a sales pitch. I wish that I had known of this place a year ago.

I used to drive by this place and think it was odd that there is a store that sells only batteries and light bulbs… until I needed a specialty bulb. I called and they had exactly what I needed. The sales clerk even offered to hold the bulbs aside for me until I could get there. They told me that the majority of their battery sales are cell phone batteries and… wait for it… yes, they replace those pesky iPhone batteries that are perpetually giving you a low battery notice. It’s $ 49 for the battery and $ 20 for installation and generally takes about 45 minutes. They also repair broken screens on phones and tablets. I’m so glad that my range hood has an odd halogen bulb and that I discovered Batteries Plus Bulbs. Oh, and it’s a super quick and easy ride from Providence. Take 195 East and take the exit right after Raymour & Flanigan and it’s immediately in your right.

We went to Batteries Plus to buy a battery for our robotics competition. We called the day before to verify they had the battery. We gave them the part number and they verified they had it.
The next day, we arrived to pick up the battery and to test our broken one. The clerk was extremely nice, helpful, and informative. But the load meter was broken and we wasted a lot of time trying to jiggle it to work. And they had an equivalent battery but not the one with our specific part number. And we needed that specific battery. Not very happy about that. Couldn’t use the battery for our competition.

I had bought a watch battery from here about a month prior… My watch stopped working. I brought it in (without the receipt) and NO QUESTIONS ASKED… The man behind the counter checked my battery, thought it was the watch itself but said I will give you a new battery, just in case… And it fixed the problem. Great customer service. Not only that, but they recycle your used batteries — yay for the environment.

Bought a lawn mower battery in July. Will no longer hold a charge after just 5 months. Tried to exchange it (still within warranty period) only to be told they think there’s nothing wrong with it and I just have to charge it. I tried to explain it had been on a charger an was still only at 40%… Never again will I shop there!
