Car Battery Sales & Fitting in Kenya

Genuine Batteries. Free On-Site Testing. No Unnecessary Replacements.

Crescent Systems Kenya supplies and fits car batteries with on-site testing first. We confirm whether a new battery is actually needed — or if your existing one can simply be recharged — before we fit anything.


Brands We Stock

We supply and fit genuine, long-life batteries from Kenya’s most reliable manufacturers:

  • Chloride Exide
  • Amaron
  • Bosch
  • Delkor
  • Globatt

Range includes standard flooded batteries through to AGM/EFB batteries for vehicles with start-stop systems.


How to Choose the Right Battery

We match the battery to your vehicle’s exact specifications — not just what fits in the tray.

Factor What Matters
Casing Standard Japanese imports use JIS sizing (NS40/NS60/NS70). European/American models use DIN sizing.
Capacity (Ah) & CCA Larger engines and vehicles with heavy electrical loads require higher Amp-hour (Ah) and Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) ratings.
Technology Standard Flooded – suitable for most vehicles. AGM/EFB – required specifically for vehicles with factory start-stop systems.

Our On-Site Testing – What We Check Before Selling

We don’t guess. We test your existing setup on-site, at no charge, to determine the actual problem.

  1. Voltage & State of Charge – measured at rest to establish baseline health.
  2. Cranking Performance – tested under load to see if the battery can actually start your engine.
  3. Alternator Output – checked while the engine is running to confirm your charging system is working correctly.
  4. Recharge Viability – we assess whether your current battery can simply be recharged rather than replaced.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a car battery last in Kenya?
Typically 3–5 years, depending on driving patterns, heat exposure, and frequent stop-and-go traffic.

Do I need an AGM battery?
Only if your vehicle has a factory-fitted start-stop system. For standard vehicles without this feature, a quality standard flooded battery is sufficient.

Is fitting included in the price?
Yes. Fitting, old battery disposal, and terminal cleaning are all included in the quoted price. No hidden charges.
