Batteries Plus Bulbs

If you need batteries of any variety, this is the place for you.
Fast, friendly, efficient and, no matter how many times I try to stump them, they always have the battery I need in stock.

The «cheers» of battery stores — whatever you need they have along with a great customer friendly attitude – I needed a battery holder for the batteries in my outside grill light — Tim keeps stuff and had jut what I needed – barely charged me and a great experience — money saved and a happy visit. When your batteries are down this is the place to come.

They will replace car batteries for no labor charge. My daughter needed a car battery while she was in town — they had it shipped that day. Got it replaced. Took a while but service was nice.
Only complaint is that the tech replacing the battery broke something on one of the wires in her car. He repaired it with duct tape and it seems fine. Would go back.

Update of my last review. There are two factors that I didn’t address in my last review Mike, one of the original owners had died after a battle with cancer shortly before I was there so their disarray had a back story. Also, I had dropped off a portable Waterpic to have the battery relpaced and Tom, the fix it guy, did a beautiful solder job on two contacts on the battery pack. This is the only place in my geographic area that provides this kind of service. Every time I try to solder small things it turns out badly.

Such a great experience. My car key fob was not working well, and I suspected it was the battery. The battery was first tested to make sure that was the issue, then it was replaced for a better price than the dealership. The best part was how the staff managed to make my daughter smile while running an otherwise mundane errand. She was given a bunch of little gifts by owner that he has ready for little ones. It was so nice to see someone go the extra mile and its a major reason why I will continue to shop small.

Cool funky place with every battery known to man. Basically battery heaven, if there was such a thing. From tiny watch batteries to full size car batteries… they have it all!
The staff was VERY helpful in resolving our laptop battery/​charging cord issue. They have a multitude of testing devices and within 10 minutes he was able to narrow down the issue. He cross reference the battery I needed and I was out the door.
They also carry small electronic devices, including items like flashlights.
Highly recommend if you need a battery!

They are great. I took my iPhone 5 in because I was having a charging problem, and Ben determined it was the charging port, not the battery. I left the phone with them and in three hours the repair was completed for $ 49. Great people & great service.

If you need a battery replaced, this place has it, will do it, and won’t charge you an arm and a leg. We’ve had everything from ancient cordless phone batteries to my hybrid key fob batteries changed here. Keep an eye out in the local Royal Oak paper, there’s oftentimes a coupon.
Only complaint: it’s a tiny store so it can get a little confusing and chaotic about who’s next to be served, etc. Also on my husband’s last visit, the employee stripped the screw on his car key fob (which are $$$ if you have to go back to the dealership) and didn’t exactly go the extra mile to put things right.
Overall, though, I’m a satisfied customer.

My Battery Manager — I believe that’s their titles. I had Jeff Siegel as my Battery Service agent and he was wonderful. Greeted me as soon as I entered the store, even though he was helping another customer. Once Jeff was done, he asked «how he could help me». I told him I needed a battery for my watch. I also explained my yesterday’s not so nice event in Madison Heights. Jeff assured me he would be able to help me. He asked me to give him a few minutes. He disappeared into his repair shop area and I browsed the store while I waited. He said the only news I have, is good news, and handed me my watch. He said it took a little patience, but was it was doable. Thank you Jeff from your new customer.

Great, friendly smart staff, very helpful and quick to help find my needs. I will definitely return for business. MAHALO’S

Delivers what’s promised: batteries and plenty of them.
What’s the plus for, you must be wondering? I suspect it’s an extremely awkward and uncomfortable retail experience.
If the prices were more competitive, it might be worth the hassle of dealing with some of the staff, but until then, I’ll be checking out other options.

Wow friendly staff! Had what I needed, and gave me a coupon for next time. Will definitely go here first for all battery needs instead of searching at all those drug stores and grocery stores for rare size batteries.

Fair prices and selection. But what makes this place excellent is their amazing customer service. They are always eager to help you identify what you need and make sure it works in your device before you leave. And if you are not up on what you need they never make you feel like you must be stupid. I now buy all my batteries here. They are a tad higher on price, but they make it worth it.

The nice guys at Batteries Plus have solved every battery-​related problem I’ve brought to the: a weird European watch whose battery compartment was fused shut, a digital clock with a battery I couldn’t find anywhere else, household power tools, etc, etc. Everything has been replaced/​fixed on the spot and the prices are VERY reasonable. Who would have thought that a battery store could be so useful?

I went to Batteries Plus in desperate need of a battery for my cell phone. I dealt with the manager /​owner who was beyond helpful. I walked away with a battery for my awful HTC phone (which I’m waiting to blow-​up) when the new IPHONE comes out. They literally had every kind of battery you could ever need, lights, adapters and a bunch of stuff I’m sure you can not find anywhere else.
I stopped back in to grab a few batteries for my studio phones and I turned to the owner and said… I have a silly question. He replied «Now you and I know, there is never any silly questions in this world». (Giggles) I asked him if they repaired watch batteries, since I had 10+ watches that were in need of new batteries. To my surprise, they SURE DO!
I brought back all of my watches the next day. They repaired one while I waited, so would have a watch to wear for the day :) Within 24Hrs. all of my watches had new batteries and at a fraction of the cost of repairing them at a jewelry store.
Besides being an totally awesome store, the service is EXCELANTRO!!! Yep!
Excellent + Cilantro = Excelantro!!!

Short & Sweet…
Has every type of battery you can think of. No seriously…
Watches, cell phone, camera, hearing aids, etc.
Usually they get through the line fast. Small shop but has everything!

As a photographer I use a lot of batteries, in all sorts of sizes and quantities. These guys have always been able to help me out and save me money in the process. They have house brand batteries for most all of the sizes I use and the savings is substantial. I have also purchased a couple of flash lights and other items all of which have been great. Another great reason to visit is that they will take all your old batteries and see to it that they get properly recycled.

I have used this store before and thought of it again when I was looking for a battery charger for a digital camera battery. I went into the store and was asked immediately if I needed help. Why Yes ! the salesman walked me to the wall with over a dozen chargers, found the one I needed, and wrote me up.
This store has batteries and battery accessories for everything, There were 4 salesman /​technicians working in a small location, very customer service oriented.

Ever throw away an electronic gadget simply because you can’t find a battery? (I’m not the only one, right?) Well, throw away no more, Birmingham’s Batteries Plus, seriously has batteries for anything. Cell phones, laptops, watches, remotes, they got a battery for you.
Located on Woodward between 14 and 15 mile by Papa Joe’s, this battery superstore is simply put super. They stock a wide variety of batteries and sell them for a competitive price. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, battery geniuses of sorts. The store is well organized which makes it easier to find just what you’re looking for.
So, whether you’re looking for a battery for a toy race car, a remote or a computer, Birmingham’s Batteries Plus is the place to go.

I’ve passed by these franchises a bajillion times thinking «what the heck do we need a store dedicated to THAT for?» … (that and cartridge world.)
Then I came to work the other day on a project and needed two replacement UPS batteries fairly quickly… so randomly I called them up, thinking if anyone in there Detroit area had them they probably would. And they did.
The APC UPS I was getting batteries for used two batteries in a series, but APC sells it as one. I brought the old in, they put together two batteries with the exact same size/​spec and disassembled the old and wired the new together in a series… He also explained that there’s a fuse in between the two batteries and told me where I could get that replacement part if needed, something that if it blew otherwise APC would probably just tell you to replace the entire battery pack.
I made two trips. The first time I went in it was insanely busy around lunch time… all the housewives of Birmingham had made it out to get new batteries… One lady brought in a scale, and seemed astonished that the price to replace the battery in her scale (which she proudly presented to them as if it were something extremely exotic) was only $ 3. Another lady brought her cordless phone in. A few others were getting random car batteries and this or thats… If you want to mingle with the gray haired ladies of Birmingham and not have to be eating at some fancy patio café, this is the place.
The next day when I went in later in the day I was the only there. The nice «chief problem solver» who helped me the day prior (BM on the receipt?) was there still, and quickly put together the two batteries…
I asked a few questions and he probably could have talked all day about what they do, he was very enthusiastic. They do Apple IPOD and IPhone battery swaps, something you can’t do yourself…
Their prices are very competitive, actually I paid about $ 50 less per battery pack than what our company’s acquisitions department pays. Plus they recycled the old for free (which in reality, is a benefit to them just as much since they reuse them, but when you buy over the Internet it’s not something they do for free do to shipping costs).
I’m amazed at how much I liked this store!
