Warranty & Returns


Our Products

Batteries will be replaced under warranty, but are not returnable for any other reason. Energy Plus batteries come with a one year warranty from Fedco Electronics and any warranty issues will be handled directly by Fedco Electronics.

Our OEM batteries come with 30 to 90 warranties depending upon the OEM.

Any used battery offered for sale will will charge to full storage charge and are warranted only not to be otherwise damaged at time of shippment.  

Incorrectly ordered batteries can not be returned - so please e-mail if you have a question before you order.



Due to the nature of what we sell we can't maintain a fixed supply on many items,  so don't wait to order if you see something you really need. All items are offered on a first come - first served basis.

Used items offered for sale are listed as we can acquire them and they may be from surplus OEM service stock or repaired and refurbished item if new stock is not available.

Items listed as being in stock should normally ship within three to five (5) working days of receipt of payment. (After funds clear if payment is via check) If an item can't be shipped within that time period we will attempt to contact you via e-mail and determine if you wish a refund. Most items are stored in our warehouse and so are not available to walk-in customers.

We have a one person shipping department, as well as order department, as well as repair department, MIS department, postal mail run person etc. - so please do be understanding in that I'm always seemingly doing something a day late.

We do not take credit cards except via our online shopping cart which is provided by Paypal. We do take money orders and checks if you do not wish to order online via Paypal. Yes, personal checks need to clear and this does slow down delivery. All payments must be in US dollars.  International MoneyGrams are also accepted, but the cost to send money using this method may be quite high.

I can't ship to any address other than the address listed by Paypal as the primary address for that Paypal account. This is due to the amount of fraud that has been occurring with unauthorized credit card orders. Sorry, but I tried to be fair, but now I need to remain in business. If you need a drop shipment - it must be paid with a check or a money order.
