If you want to pay a lot for batteries, this is, your place. Went in because they are close to my house. Guy tried to hard sell me on a "labor, battery and lifetime replacement for 19.99." No thanks, I know how to change a battery. Bought a two pack of CR 2032 for 7.99. You can get a 6 pack on Amazon for 5.38 of Energizer brand. Wished I'd looked at Amazon first. read more

i called about a laptop battery and was told they had it. i got there and they did not. they did offer to get it overnighted, for less than the website would charge. it was very confusing in there because so many people were working and they all seemed to have different answers, but i did manage to order eventually. now to see if it shows up tomorrow as promised. read more

Fast & friendly service. Replaced my Polar watch battery and the Polar strap battery for under $13.00 - I am happy. Kelly G. read more

These guys are great.!!!!! I went in with an intermittent key FOB and not only did we find out the battery was weak, but the case holder for the battery had a cold solder joint and broke off as soon as we opened the case. They took the time to re-solder the case onto the circuit board and get me on my way for 8 bucks!!!!! The dealer would have charged me $80 if not more as I had already called them Great Customer service at Batteries Plus on Burnet @ Anderson!!! read more

My step-daughter being part of Girls Rock Camp Austin had her performance a few days ago. She had a pair of battery powered light-up drum sticks she wanted to use for the show to add some 'flash'. Just before show time one of the sticks stopped lighting up. Thinking it was the batteries gone dead and having 45 minutes before the show I rushed to the Batteries Plus at 2300 South Lamar. We swapped out the batteries but nothing. The Batteries Plus guys took apart the nearly microscopic lighting mechanism, soldered, sanded and did everything they could to get it working again. Unfortunately to no avail since nothing they tried could resurrect it but the effort they all put in -without charging us a penny- was heroic. Thanks to the S. Lamar Batteries Plus guys for doing everything possible to help a 12yr old girl rock the show!!! read more

Nice clean store, has a large selection of Batteries and the staff was very helpful.

These guys are the battery kings! I needed an odd battery for and older digital camera and they had it! Two other stops did not. If you need a battery for and old device this is the place. Great staff and good humor and I like it! read more

Fixed my watch band for free and it took a while too. These guys are super helpful, the store has all kinds of helpful accessories, and I must say, great music playing over the store's radio. Thanks guys!! read more

Prices are much higher than Amazon, which is a deal-breaker for my future business. Example $4.32 for just 1 CR2016 at Batteries Plus, and $2.99 for a 5-pack of CR2016 from Amazon. Selection is complete. They seem to have every battery product in the world. Employees are knowledgeable about the products they carry. read more

Very helpful staff. I needed to have an iPhone 5 battery and screen replaced because the old battery had swollen to a point it was actually in danger of exploding. The guys educated me on the best way to charge the phone without over taxing the battery and how to hook up to cloud storage to back up my phone. Great info! read more

This place is great! Prompt and professiona service plus,they are the nicest people ever! Thank you JD! You fixed my problem in minutes and I walked away one happy customer who will send all my friends your way. read more

My Mom needed some batteries for her car's keyless remotes, which had stopped working. She also brought along several watches. While we were there, I purchased a battery for my own car key as well. Nick was a super-friendly and amazingly helpful gentleman, who replaced all of the batteries that we needed. He showed me what he was doing with the car remote, then he got to work on the watches. I kid you not, he worked with the smallest screw inside one watch that I have ever seen in my life...this task could have sent anyone reeling, but he was calm, steady, and cheerful. Honestly, I never expected to write a review for a battery store - but if you feel clueless about how to replace a mysterious battery, or even if you just need a bunch of AAA's - go here. They have it all...with friendly and professional service. You can also bring your dead batteries to recycle. read more

JD was an awesome I saw him yesterday he stayed way past his working hours to get a battery working in my van for me. I can't recommend them highly enough thank you very much JD! Ken read more

Batteries Plus, Burnet Road, Austin, Texas. I was there about 6:30 on Wednesday, November 3, 2010. There was a young man working alone. He had three customers there that needed help finding certain batteries. He didn't point and say they are over on that shelf or that rack. He walked over to the rack/shelf, confirmed that it was the correct battery, told us what package quantities were available and the price of each package. He was aware of who came in first, second, etc. and helped us in that order. He was very courteous and very helpful. I'm sorry I didn't ask his name. It would be nice to include that in this report. Thanks, Batteries Plus, for insuring the knowledge and helpfulness of your store employees. Jan read more

Outstanding service. Thought I needed a new car battery but after talking with Adam and checking my car fobs it turns out I only need fobs. 2 cars and 3 bad fobs. Adam was excellent in finding the problem and quickly taking care of my needs. He also helped with some LED light. The employees are very knowledgeable. They also are helpful in mentioning discounts and good store offers. Lastly, they recycle batteries. Thanks Adam and Batteries Plus on Burnet Rd. read more

I went to the other Batteries + Bulbs on S. Lamar, but that location isn't listed on Yelp. I went in to get a new battery for my car key, and they fixed me right up, for half the price of the repair shop in the mall. They were very friendly and helpful. read more

Ernest at Batteries Plus/Burnet Road is awesome! I have a watch that I had previously tried to get a new battery at this location and was told they couldn't do it because it was an expensive watch. So I took it to Austin Watch and Repair Co./Burnet Rd. They charged me $40, had to send the watch off for eight weeks, were extremely rude and the battery lasted a very short time. Fast forward to Ernest. While I was at BP getting a replacement battery for a different watch, I told Ernest the story. He checked the list of watches they will not work on, didn't find mine listed and agreed to try to put in a new battery for me. it took him about 15 seconds; he charged me $17.95 and was extremely friendly and professional. He added my watch to my lifetime battery card and I was out of there in less than five minutes. My watch is very sentimental to me and I was not looking forward to being without it for two months and was dreading having to work with the people at Austin Watch Repair. Thanks to Ernest, I will always try him first for all my watch replacement batteries. read more

This is to warn any potential customers or existing customers. I have a battery that is under warranty and is not longer holding a charge. I called the store and after speaking to an employee he determined based off of the information that was given that the battery would be exchanged if I brought it in. I immediately left the house to exchange the battery. Upon walking into the store and talking to possibly a different employee, I was then given the run around and told I would have to drop the battery off in order for them to run their test. I explained to the employee what was told to me over the phone and all I wanted was for them to honor what was promised to me. If I was told that a test had to be run, I would of waited to come in and not rushed. Obviously I'm in need of a battery or I wouldn't have rushed in. I am so disappointed with the customer service I received that I allowed them to keep the battery and now I will take my business elsewhere. To those of you reading this, be wary of what is promised with their so called warranty and expect to get the run around in the event that you experience a similar situation with a battery that you have purchased there. read more

The bad: It took way to long to get help. One employee was tied up on personal call. The other put restocking shelves above waiting on customers. Their prices are far higher than you can find equal products online. The good: If you need it today, there it is. They take old batteries and fluorescent lights for recycling. read more

BUYER BEWARE!! THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER. And NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT IPHONE REPAIR. My experience was awful. Went in for an iphone cracked screen repair and got a completely messed up iphone back. Could not use it for anything - whenever I touched the screen, the screen went white - blank- and then completely black and then it tried to reboot. This happened every time I touched the screen. Took the phone back, spoke to the owner, who yelled at me and tried to bully me by saying repeatedly, over and over again, that they did not mess up the phone and that there was nothing wrong with the phone. One can not believe that this kind of a reaction actually exists!! Unfortunately, there were no customer witnesses in the store. I asked for my money back. He said if I gave him my phone back he would put back the broken screen and then give me my money back. Unbelievable! Dishonest store owner. No people skills and no other skills either. I also reported him to the BBB. read more

JD did an awesome job at fixing the screen on my iphone today. My mom & I had called ahead and gotten a quote the day before. The man on the phone said he would even give us a discount since we were getting 2 phones fixed which was great! However, when we arrived, we realized we had the iphone 6s as opposed to just the iphone 6 & that it was going to be twice the price we had been quoted on the phone. JD said that he would still give us a discount. Around 2 hours later (not long at all!!) I came back to pay for the repair & pick up my phone. I was charged even less than JD said it was going to be. Great customer service, the repair was fast, and my phone works amazing. 10/10. I would highly recommend JD and Batteries Plus!!! read more

Great place for battery replacement for your watch! I was in and out this morning in about 2 minutes, and the people there are so nice! Easy parking on the east side of Burnet, north of Anderson Lane. This is my go-to place for batteries and help of all kinds! read more

Complete garbage. I bought 2 batteries here for a headlamp. Took them home, and they did not have enough juice to run the product. I took the batteries back with the receipt, and they told me the batteries were dead, and they could not take them back. Well... of course they were dead. That is why my product would not work, and I'm trying to return them. They steadfastly refused. This place gets an F- on customer service. read more

I was told that I could get a car battery for my truck at Batteries Plus. I called and Kevin responded and assured me that the battery that I needed was in stock and that he would install it free of charge. It was very difficult to remove the old cables from the old battery, but Kevin was persistent and, in the end, had to cut the old cable and replace that with a new one. It was a very challenging job, but he never gave up. He was resourceful, to say the least, and did an excellent job of installing the new battery. There was no charge for the very demanding job that he did to install the new battery. He was very gracious to the very end. I am very happy that I chose to go to Batteries Plus for my truck's battery and that Kevin was there to do the job. Batteries Plus is where I will go from now on for all my battery needs. read more

Did I ever get lucky when I found this resource for repairing my I-Pad which I had dropped accidentally. I had visions of spending many hundreds of dollars for Apple to fix it, after having it sent it, etc., etc. After looking online for a local resource, they agreed to look at it and try to help me. Scott was able to fix everything, within a short time, and it was a VERY reasonable cost to me. It was a very great relief to have this done locally, and have only good things to say about their service and courteous way of dealing with this. read more

First class service from Ernest at Batteries Plus Bulbs today. New battery works like a charm and free installation! "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." My car needed a new battery, and he found the exact battery I needed pretty quickly. However, my car had some rusty screws holding the battery down and removing the old battery was a challenge to say the least. I think most people would have given up, but Ernest went the extra mile today and made sure I got the new battery installed. I highly recommend this Batteries Plus Bulbs location, and kudos to Ernest. You really don't find this type of service just anywhere these days. Thanks again! read more

These guys provide wonderful service. If you have to go in for batteries - generally you aren't in the greatest of moods; something of 21st century technology isn't working and has become an inconvenience. These guys RESPECT your TIME and MONEY. What more can you ask for? I live South and work off Spicewood Springs. I would go out of my way visit this particular location, because in the long run, what I loose in gas, I make up in SUCH A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE. read more

Well I give the manager props for contacting me and attempting to fix the mistake they made by breaking my camera in the process of restoring the screen. However, the camera still doesn't work as well as it did (when I take pictures the pictures come out grainy when you zoom in - it didn't do that before) The LG G4 is supposed to have 16 mp camera and it used to take sharp crisp pictures before I took it to this place. Also, the double tap feature to turn my phone on no longer works after having them replace the screen. I should've gone to Verizon in the first place. Whatever you do, don't go to this place to get your screen fixed because this has been a real headache. And a pricey one. read more

I ordered a battery online that was supposed to be in the store. I then received a notification saying it had arrived and if I brought my driver's license in, along with the purchase order and the credit card that it was ready for pickup. When I arrived I was told that I had been emailed in a note that it wasn't there. Maybe that is what he thought he emailed me, but that is not what I received. The other gentleman tried to be helpful and double checked in the back to make sure there weren't any. He then called their S Lamar store, which had a busy tone. He also called the Round Rock store and supposedly they were going to transfer some the next day. He told me to call back the South Lamar store when I got home and ask them to as well, which I did. I then called the next day at about 3PM, and they said it wasn't in yet. So then I called back at 6PM and was told they only do deliveries on MWF. I have been told they will call me tomorrow now, but I am not very impressed. I am leaving on a train at 6:30PM. I ordered this because I needed it in a hurry. I bought a device that requires an 18650 battery for a trip I am taking Wednesday. I would not have ordered it from them if it had not said it was in stock. I don't understand why I was told they would ship some from one store to another the next day if they don't transfer stock on those days. I think the gentleman who made the calls for me was trying much harder than the other gentleman, but they have failed in three different ways: A) not keeping track of their inventory, B) supposedly this clerk thought he was sending me a note on the email that said the product had arrived when what I actually got was an email saying the product was in and ready for pickup, and C) claiming they would transfer the product from another store and then not doing so because it wasn't an official delivery day. I'm trying to get ready for a trip, and I am not even sure that the item I want this for works, so this really is wasting my time. The only reason that they are getting a two rather than a one is that the second gentleman I spoke to made some calls to the other stores, but I am kind of ticked at the moment. read more

I needed batteries for my watches and for my keyless car remote. Nick was fantastic. He went beyond any service I remember.. Patience and beyond Great Service.. He made my day....... read more

Great service and very knowledgeable. Gave me a refund even though I was a day late. They've been willing to work with me to help solve the particular problem I was having with a car battery. read more

Very dissapinting in the lack of customer service or non service. The problem started when I walked in to get a battery replaced in a watch that I had replaced a battery in about a month ago. At the time of the watch battery replacement, the clerk asked me if I wanted to purchase an unlimited battery replacement guarantee. And I did. it sounded like a good deal. So I bought an unlimited battery replacement card and unbeknownst to me the retail clerk wrote down the wrong band description on the card. My watch is a Swiss Army Renegade that has a rubber band. But the card was mistakenly labeled with a leather band. I did not know this until today when I noticed my watch had stopped working this afternoon. So after work, I went to the store. The clerk was very unhelpful indicating that he could do nothing for me since the card said leather band and not rubber. When I said there had been a mistake, that Swiss army watches generally don't have leather bands, he flipped his own watch to me to show that his did indeed have a leather band. However, his watch was not a Renegade model. I have been a loyal customer for years. I have bought many batteries for watches, car and security systems. But I am now thinking seriously of just giving up on the company. And it's a shame because they generally have very nice and helpful staffs read more

Batteries Plus is terrific. Special shout-out to Adam, who works at the location on Burnet Road. Here's what happened - I bought a new battery at Auto Zone for my Mini Cooper, but the guys there declined to install it for me. They opened the hood and decided it would be too complicated for them to install (as a couple of different pieces have to be removed on a Mini to put in the new battery.) I called Batteries Plus down the street and Adam answered. He said to come down and he'd take a look at it. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and proceeded to easily take the steps needed to install the new battery. It took him ten minutes, tops, to put in the new battery. When it was done, he refused payment, even though I had bought the battery from Auto Zone, and not from them. Long story short, I will always go to Batteries Plus from now on! read more

Joey Villegas is the man! My husband, Jeff, was stuck downtown with a dead car battery last week, during rush hour, and needed to get hooked up--fast. I called the Burnet location and worked with Joe to get a battery lined up. When my husband arrived at Batteries Plus 30 minutes later, Joe had the battery ready to go, tested the old one to be sure we actually needed it, did a superfast install, disposed of the old battery, got us hooked up with our rebate info. and quickly back on the road. We both agreed that he was really great to work with--positive attitude, kind, courteous and knew what he was doing. Thanks again, Joey, for the terrific service we received! read more

I went to this location on 1/3 because I needed a battery for my security system, a couple batteries for other items, and I wanted to use the $4.99 watch battery coupon. I went during a break from work and bought the above items which totaled $57.32 including tax. The guy threw in a free flourescent lightbulb from a promotion they were doing. When I looked at the receipt, it looked like he charged me for the free lightbulb, so I asked him about it. He said that he was deducting that amount from the security battery (I had an additional coupon for 10% off that he had said he could not honor because I was already using the watch battery coupon. I thought he was giving me this deduction because he felt bad that I couldn't use the 10% coupon). So I thanked him and went on my way back to work. When I got to work, I took out my calculator and saw that he had charged me for the free lightbulb AND had charged me $7.99 for the $4.99 watch battery. So I went back later and a young-ish (around 30 year old) Caucasion guy waited on me. I told him the story and he clarified that the $2.99 was added on to the security battery because it was really 32.99, not 30.00, as the receipt said (it was $32.99 when I looked at it on the shelf ). But when I asked him about the $7.99 charge for the watch battery, he shrugged his shoulders and said sarcastically, "Do you want your $3.00 back?" I said "Yes." He said , "It's only$ 3.00, fine." I took it, thanked him and left. I should have returned everything I had purchased - he was rude. Especially after I had spent all that money there. I have to say that I've been in that store a few times and always had good experiences. I won't go there again. read more

Don't let Jennifer help you! Rude, disinterest person. Had trouble telling her battery numbers and it was evident she wanted me gone. Asked her to use cross reference and felt like I asked her to carry my next child! I will go back, but will avoid Jennifer. Oh and I spent $65 so I was not there for a freebie. read more

Went here for the first time due to perceived convenience. Purchased two sets of batteries and they were EXPENSIVE. My take on this business is that if you don't know what type of battery you need, they have staff to help you find the right battery. All I did was pull out the batteries from my devices and wrote down the model number of the battery and brought the info to the store, so I didn't really need any help. Looked at Target and Best Buy sites afterwards and found the same batteries much cheaper. read more

First time in this place and experience was excellent! Had an issue getting the back off my watch - took 2 of the guys! Successful and to turn around, gave me the battery FREE!!!!!!! WOW - totally made my Monday and a new customer! read more

Chris was great. Lone man running the shop, but it was an off time. No matter I think he would have given me as much individualized attention as I needed. When a delivery man showed up at the back door, he excused himself for all of a minute and then apologized for having to interrupt our conversation. I wouldn't hesitate to go back, hoping everyone would have ttended the same customer service training Chris did. read more

Just go somewhere else!!! Awful!!!. I went to this place to get my iPhone 6 screen replaced. I called beforehand to ask how much it is. On the phone I have been told that it would cost $110 and there is a $15 off coupon that I can obtain when I get there, meaning that it would come to $95. Then I went there left my phone. 3 hours later I went back to get my phone, the guy told me the total is $120 with the coupon applied. I told them that I have been told differently over the phone. Then this guy goes, the guy whom I speak to was a new hire and he probably didn't know how much was it. Then he said, and I quote; you can either pay $120 or I will be more than happy to put your cracked screen back. read more
