A very helpful store providing a very useful service. They know how to handle expensive watches and do their job fast yet carefully. Very nice folks who gladly answer your questions. Ive gone to them many times and will continue to patronize them.

This Batteries Plus Bulbs is the closest one to my home in Alameda. I started dealing with Batteries Plus Bulbs about 10 years ago when they had their business in San Francisco on Bush Street. They closed that business, so I started going to the one in El Cerrito on San Pablo Avenue. Guess what? The one in El Cerrito closed a little over a month ago.Since I always rely on their business having the CR2025 batteries, my husband and I stopped in at this one. I like the business; however, I wish the gentleman who assisted me was little more pleasant. He was very helpful in finding a pack of batteries for my stylus/pen/flashlight accessory. When I need my CR2025s I will come back to patronize the business.Maybe my future visit will be more pleasant. Time alone will tell.

They might not have everything you need in stock, but if you call them or walk in they are the most helpful people ever! They were patient when I asked basic battery questions, gave me a good refund back for my old battery, and helped me haul my new battery to my car without me even asking. :)

Ive been coming to this store for several years. They always provide expert and friendly customer service, solid value, and a wide battery assortment.

I usually dont write negative comments, but I feel compelled to write this to warn other consumers since they refused to honor the warranty for rather a common scenario. I purchased a high-end battery for MDX earlier this year. The battery never kept the charge even after the replacement. We thought that it was due to infrequent usage of the vehicle due to COVID lockdown. However, even after extensive use, it never kept the charge. We took it back to the store, and they told me it is probably a bad alternator. So, we replaced the alternator, but it continues to display the same problem. We again thought it was due to infrequent usage, but it still did not hold the charge even after the extensive drive. We took it back to the store multiple times, where they gave us homework to do each time, but none helped. They finally ran a test on the battery to find that it is a faulty battery. However, they are refusing to honor the warranty due to a previous potential issue with the alternator. I even contacted the Batteries Plus Bulbs corp office, but they repeated the same from the store owner. They attempted to sell me a cheaper battery at a discounted price if they were doing a service for me. It is very common to find alternator issues after battery replacement. However, if the company and store owner refuses to stand by their warranty, then I am not sure why they even advertise it in the first place.

Would not honor warranty for $300+ AGM battery purchased at this location in 2018. Battery was fully charged and confirmed defective through a load test, but the warranty was voided due to a loose positive terminal and claimed it wasnt charging properly. The terminal was securely fastened to the battery and confirmed to have no negative effect on charging. Purchased new battery elsewhere.

On September 22 I took my iPhone in to have a cracked screen replaced. I should have known better. I had to ask to replace the protective cover the technician took off.I have had nothing but trouble with my phone. The screen rotated by itself, changed colors, rapidly flipped between s apps. When I went to Apple, their tech noticed that one of the screws was missing.My very expensive iPhone was rendered useless when the screen went totally blank.I strongly suggest taking your phone to a reputable business

Prior to my online order, called into the store, Greg answered and was very helpful. Once at the store, greeted at open door, held open to allow me to walk easily in carrying my core. Saw my order was already at the front desk with paperwork. Simple accounting procedure to recognize my core and even helped to my car with the new battery. Wow! What great experience. Already looking forward to my next future purchase.

Always great customer service and they are knowledgeable and make sure you get what you need. Prices are cheaper than Target and obviously the selection is better, they even have car batteries.3 stars due to the heavy smell of pot and cigarette smoke inside the building.

Very good pricing and stock availability.The store was very flexible in allowing my driver to pick up the batteries instead of me (who placed the order.) They made it easy to apply the credit for returned cores to my credit card. Positive experience.

Wonderful service, saved my cell phone! On a Saturday afternoon, when the Verizon service wasnt answering, I was afraid I was out of luck - and phone - until Monday. But the folks at Batteries Plus came to my rescue. I contacted them, they checked and made sure they had the right battery in stock, I drove over... ran an errand and by the time I returned, theyd replaced the battery, and it was good to go. (Finished charging it at home). Kind, helpful, and I was amazed at the value. I will be back to get some of the specialty LED bulbs my next trip that direction.

Great experience! I bought my specialty battery online to pick up in store (10% off for doing that) Ten minutes later I had an email that it was ready to pick up (I wasnt even to the store yet) Once at the store I was greeted with two friendly people. My identity was confirmed and the battery loaded into the back of my truck! From ordering online to battery loaded was less then 20 minutes! Awesome place will definitely be back for our specialty battery needs!

Small shop packed with every type of battery you can imagine. Needed a hard to find battery for my Volvo key fob and he had it in stock here. Prices are a bit higher than you would pay if ordered on the internet, however this is a good place to get a hard to find battery when you need it the same day.

Review №38

Website is easy to navigate. Ordering is simple. I purchased a battery for my car and the price was very competitive. The store clerk delivered the beast of a battery (weighs over 40 lbs) into my car and took the core back in a similar fashion. Great experience and when you go into the store youll see more different types of batteries than you can imagine.

Took my phone here for a battery replacement on my Galaxy. I made a reservation for service ahead of time and was able to save a little money in doing so with a coupon B+B provided. I brought it in and Greg helped me. He was prompt and the repair was completed in the time he had quoted me. Very pleased thus far.

What an amazing experience I had! My compliments to their integrity and speed and price.I took my two watches to them for battery replacement. One of the watches didnt need one. He came and told me it’s working fine and no need for change. He could have easily charged for it.Low price and he changed it right there - took about 5 to 6 min.Thank you guys

Great place to get a battery for your watch For $9 99 cents. They have fixed my 5 watches in the last 6 month. Like to mention my battery from my house alarm. I would recommend these people.. By the way if you like to buy a group of batteries for your watch And put them in yourself you can do that too.

This is the place to go for hard to get batteries, bulbs and other related electronic parts or devices. They have a wide variety of battery testers and batteries that range from little tiny button cells all the way up to large 12 volt batteries intended for marine and Industrial use.They also repair battery operated devices within reason. They also repair smartphones.

Review №57

This is my go-to place for batteries. Over the past few years, they have assembled custom Ni-Cd battery packs for me, replaced batteries in a UPS for a fraction of the price of the UPS manufacturer, and I bought one car battery here that has proven dependable, even more so than the OEM battery. I need a new battery for my truck now, and will buy it here.Yes, the parking lot is not ideal, but it became that way after the shopping center was renovated several years ago with additional construction added. Unfortunately this seems to be typical of new parking lots in Dublin.I normally avoid shopping at places with tight parking, but the great service I’ve received, fair prices, and quality of the items available at this store keep me coming back.

I recently bought two RV batteries from Batteries Plus in Dublin, Ca. This was a great and easy transaction. I paid online and when I went down to the store, the batteries were ready and they loaded them in my truck and removed the old ones. Also, there was a 10% off offer online which I took advantage of. Cant beat this for a deal and an easy transaction. The whole thing took less than 30 minutes.

I needed a battery for my 1985 Honda Magna VF700C. It was immediately available for pick up. I decided to get the more expensive Duracell (with a 2-year warranty), which had more cranking power compared with less expensive brands. It could see right away that it was more powerful than my old battery.

Parking is tight in this lot and there are two handicap spots up front that serve the whole building. Customer often pull into the walkway between the handicap spots. Being in a wheelchair this prevents me from accessing my car and loading my wheelchair in. Obviously this isn’t B and Bs fault, but what is their fault is their employee arguing with me that it’s “their spot” and it’s ok for people to do it. Honestly if they just apologized for their customers I might buy my next car battery here, but encouraging people to violate the parking the law at the expense of the disabled is rotten. I recommend you shop elsewhere with a more considerate staff .

Wow!! Went in thinking a place that specializes in bulbs would have LED options for just about everything. Was looking for a replacement for a hallogen flood. The guy said that he hadnt seen anything like that. When I mentioned that theyre all over Amazon and that Id rather get them here, he just chuckled and mumbled something under his breath. I guess thats why brick and mortar is on the outs!! If you want to save time and $$ just shop Amazon I guess ...

I took my failing iPad 2 in to have a new battery installed, as I was fairly certain that was my problem in that it did not hod a charge for over one day anymore.After a couple of hours, I received a text indicating that the device was ready for pickup. When I went to the store, I was happy to learn that it was just a setting that had inadvertently changed, causing the device to remain on all the time.There was no charge for the service. No inspection fee, nor was there any minimum processing fee.Nice to see there are still shops that operate that way.Should the need for batteries or bulbs arise, you know where Ill be conducting my business.

Generally unhelpful staff, strange vibe, smelled like pot in the store, parking was a complete nightmare, battery came with NOTHING (i.e. paper, instructions to tell me if it was already charged, or if I had to charge it, and how to charge if I needed to, no box either). The salesguy did not offer that info. The 2 stars are because I think the value was good for the battery I bought. I will buy from a different source next time.

I discovered this store about a month ago. I have been back FOUR TIMES to buy more stuff! They carry EVERYTHING in the bulbs and batteries category. The staff there have been very kind to me, and have answered all of my questions about how to transition from regular light bulb to LED light bulb. They also have a display with the lights bulbs turned on so that you can see the differences. They also carry regular three-way 30-70-100 bulbs for many of the lamps in my home. The prices for these bulbs are $5 per bulb, which is slight higher than youll find at Home Depot. However, I would rather pay the slightly higher price at a place where I can run inside, get what I need, and run out---and if I have questions, there is always someone there with knowledge to help out. My first visit there, I brought in a family keepsake that is a small, all silver metal steam train locomotive (small, fits in the palm of your hand). It has a clock on the front, and in the back is takes some type of weird battery and I had no idea how to change it or where I could even buy such a battery. But the young manager there knew exactly what to do and had the thing fixed with the correct time set on the clock before I even came back to the counter with my other purchases. AWESOME!! Ive also purchased AA batteries in bulk----containers of 24 batteries---and I forget the price but I seem to recall it was about 70% cheaper than CVS. They also sell Honda generator batteries for a 5000 watt generator I have for home use, and Ive been paying way too much at a Honda store. Now I know where I will buy my next generator battery! Overall I give them a 5 out of 5 stars. The place is clean, organized, very neat and tidy, and they are totally happy to help you out. Its a dream that a store like this exists. I never knew!!!!!

Ive only had the battery for a few days and my car (bmw m3) is starting noticeably quicker. X2 is manufactured by Northstar and my 2nd choice was the Northstar battery but this one had higher cranking amps; (cold cranking amps was the same). Dont think you can go wrong with either one but batteries plus is a brick and mortar store so returns would be easier in case of a defective battery.

Purchased battery online and picked it up from the store. The gentleman working that night was very friendly and helpful. He offered to help me out with the install, but being from an automotive background, I could manage a battery change without any help. I also had a blown reverse light that I found out when I was changing the battery which was a plus that they sold automotive bulbs too. The AGU battery I purchased has been holding uop very well so far having a sound system running. Thanks!

Complete and utter waste of time. Dude told me they have the battery I need over the phone and when I get there (after 40 minute drive), another guy at the store tells me they don’t have it. Then I asked if he can call the other guy maybe he left it somewhere at the counter, and he refused to call him. Never again
