  1. What Could Be Causing Your Generator Battery To Keep Dying?

  2. Struggling to start your generator? • We know how frustrating it could be… to not be able to start a generator despite repeated attempts. • Battery drain is one reason why your generator might refuse to start.

  3. THE ROLE OF BATTERY…

  4. The battery helps a generator with many different things. It supplies energy to the starter motor It drives the cooling fan, fuel pump, and other components It powers the control circuits It supports the automatic start feature So, obviously… if it fails, generator’s overall functionality will be impacted.

  5. WHY YOUR GENERATOR’S BATTERY MIGHT KEEP DYING

  6. REASON #1- DEFECTIVE VOLTAGE REGULATOR

  7. Voltage regulator essentially controls the electricity distribution. • If it malfunctions, the battery may not charge properly… and may drain faster than usual.

  8. REASON #2- MALFUNCTIONING ALTERNATOR

  9. This is yet another reason why your generator battery may die unexpectedly. • A defective alternator won’t be able to keep the battery properly charged… causing it to drain quickly.

  10. REASON #3- THE BATTERY IS PAST ITS PRIME

  11. When was the last time you had your battery’s voltage output tested? Has it been a while?

  12. Well, check its voltage output using a multimeter… This test will reveal a lot about its efficiency.

  13. REASON #4- INFREQUENT USE

  14. Not using the generator regularly can cause its battery to weaken. • A weak battery won’t be able to hold charge for a prolonged period.

  15. REASON #5- OVERCHARGING/ UNDERCHARGING

  16. Improper charging can significantly shorten your battery’s lifespan and may cause it to die unexpectedly.

  17. Constant overcharging can cause the battery to overheat and lose its ability to retain charge.

  18. REASON #6- CONNECTIONS ARE EITHER LOOSE OR CORRODED

  19. You generator battery won’t be able to receive adequate charge… if its connections are loose or corroded. • This scarcity of charge can cause the battery to drain quickly.

  20. REASON #7- ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS

  21. EXCESSIVE HEAT/ COLD HIGH HUMIDITY • … can also impact the efficiency of your generator’s battery.

  22. SUMMING UP

  23. Ensure the upkeep of your generator battery. • Replace it after the recommended interval.
