We love this store. We go here for light bulbs and most batteries. Why is this our go to store? Sterling, he always seems to be working when we go in. He is old school, very helpful and knows a lot about what he is selling. read more

I trusted these guys to fix my cracked phone screen and replace my failing iPad battery. Priced fair and I'm real happy with their work. I would recommend this location to my friends and family. read more

Cell phone repair review: Called on a Sunday at 4:56pm letting Patrick know I was 2 min away since they closed at 5pm and to please not leave. He said well, "If you're not here by 5pm, we cannot stay later, we are not allowed". I told him we were on our way and will likely arrive before 5 and he reiterated that he was closing right at 5. This would have been a 5 star review but this company lost my respect after acting like this. I mean come, this is someone's cell phone. read more

Very impressed by their knowledge and friendly staff and quick repair time. read more

Batteries Plus - Battery Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

Richard provided me with excellent customer service tonight. He was working at the Lamar location by himself, with no air conditioning, and had several items to fix, yet took the time to look at my Iphone to assess whether it could be fixed immediately or if I needed to come back after he was finished with the other items. He quickly determined that the microphone in my phone was just loose and did not need to be replaced and made my day by resolving the issue which was caused by AT&T's repair service when they replaced my Iphone screen. And at no charge!!! I did buy some lightbulbs and batteries while I was there though.... I will be a lifelong customer of Batteries Plus now that I know you can repair Iphones and when I was in the store, my husband noticed that you have marine batteries cheaper than where he has bought them in the past. Bottomline we now appreciate Richard and Batteries Plus! read more

I went into this place to buy replacement blinker bulbs for my truck, and after a quick check of their database I was sold 2 pairs of bulbs. When I tried to install the bulbs a few days later I realized they were not even close to being correct. When I attempted to return the bulbs and swap them for the correct bulbs the clerk rechecked the system and got the same answer for the type of bulb that I need. He then told me "our database is always right," and he refused a return. Obviously not. Do yourself a favor and go to one of the four auto places down the road. read more

Batteries Plus - As you can see the bottom nodes are completely different. - Battery Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

I bought the wrong batteries for my e-Cig on eBay so I came here for help. The CSR behind the counter was very friendly, helpful and so knowledgable.. I'm seriously speechless. He got me the right product and even explained how I can modify the batteries I bought on eBay so that they would fit in my ecig; but I'm not about to go cutting into some batteries. Next thing you know, I'm making crystal meth again and that's a lot of bad memories. read more

I was back again this past weekend. This time with a multi-battery pack for a UPS. Once again great knowledgeable staff and service. I liked being able to leave my old battery pack and return later to pickup a new assembled unit . read more

This place is the best. I needed a battery replacement for an IPhone 6. Sterling helped me. He diagnosed the battery problem (phone would not power up), replaced the battery and got me on my way in under 10 minutes. This store had a $30 discount. So, $49 instead of the $79 Apple charges. Plus, and this is a big plus, I got the phone working without having to wait for hours. I had first taken the phone to the Apple Genius bar. Don't bother with that. Waste of time. read more

This is what customer service should be! Took my Iphone to replace the cracked screen, accidentally messed up the Touch ID fingerprint function, apologized, and got me a new phone. Very quick turnaround and help with every step. Honest, smart, and caring guys! highly recommend! Need more people like this! read more

I'm convinced the person that created a store that sells nothing but batteries is a flat-out genius. Why? Because batteries are one of those things that people never think about until they need them. Oh, and you know that odd-sized Energizer 344 1.5 volt battery you need replaced? Good luck finding one of those at Walmart or CVS. In other words, Batteries Plus has the perfect niche market. They carry batteries that most stores do not and, as luck would have it, there's a Batteries Plus location conveniently near you! Unfortunately, opening up a store that sells nothing but batteries means A) you need to sell a bunch to make a profit and B) you need to drastically markup your prices, too. And that's the biggest issue I have with Batteries Plus: You're paying for convenience. Remember that Energizer 344 1.5 volt battery I mentioned before? One sells for around $5 at Batteries Plus--or you can buy *five* off Ebay for nearly the same price (shipping included). If you're looking to get the best deal possible, and you don't mind the wait, the battery you're looking for can most likely be found online for much less. However, if time and convenience are factors, or maybe you just need guidance to find the correct replacement, Batteries Plus can be an asset. read more

Nick at Batteries Plus has saved the day so many times he's like a super hero. This last time, my dog bit my iPhone. I thought it was a goner, but Nick was able to repair it at a great price and great customer service! read more

Great experience purchasing a battery for my Kia Soul, they installed battery also replaced the battery for fob for the remote. First class all service. read more

Don't get your phone screen fixed here. The screen starts coming off after a few days. Bad quality. I would definitely avoid this place. That's all. read more

I looked all over for a very small battery (even by motorcycle standards) but could not find it anywhere. Went into Batteries Plus and they had it but it cost $90.00. Never again. Next time this riding mower needs a battery I am going to engineer a way to usr a regular $40. Battery. Bottom line if you cant find it anywhere chances are you will find it here. read more

Scheduled an appointment to get my iPhone 6 repaired. Estimated time: 40 minutes. Actual time: 2 hours and a worse broken screen than before. No answers. No help. Just wasted time and bad customer service. read more

I went into Batteries Plus Bulbs to have the battery in my watch replaced. The technician, Sterling, explained that it wasn't the battery, it was the watch which was poorly designed and prone to mechanical failure. He took his time to explain some better brands of watches that have longer life spans. He dug through a box of dead watches to show me some specific models not to buy. Then, he referred me to a business that may be able to fix the broken watch for a reasonable price. (On the understanding that the watch probably won't last a very long time.) Additionally, Sterling and I discussed replacing broken screens on Samsung Galaxy phones, a service which is done in the shop. I had previously done it on my phone but made an error in a nonfatal step. Sterling carefully explained in detail how to do it correctly should I attempt to do it again. If you ever need a new cellphone battery, car battery, or basically any kind of battery you could ever need, this is the place to go. Also, they sell light bulbs for your car and home appliances and all sorts of other light bulbs. The people that work there are nice and will help you. And they sell a lot of fun gadgets. Check out this place! read more

See all

I usually don't write a review of experience purchasing batteries, but this was exceptional. The two different sales reps I spoke with were super helpful and rad. The charger I needed was expensive and my bill was adding up, so one of the reps gave me a 10% discount just to be nice. I went back and the other gentleman working was just as kind. They take time to talk to you and are genuinely nice, so thanks for that Battery Plus Blubs dudes. read more

While charging, my daughter's iPhone 6 was knocked off the table by one of our cats. The metal end of the charging cable became lodged inside the charging port of the phone, and the phone quickly died as we were not able to plug in any other charging cables into the port. This morning we brought the phone into the store, not really knowing how complex it would be to fix. Well, Sterling took the phone away, and came back within a minute (yes, that's 60 seconds), holding a pair of tweezers with the offending piece of metal cable end in one hand, and my daughter's working phone in the other. I want to say how impressed I am with Sterling's helpful and friendly attitude. I'm normally a die hard online shopper, but next time I have a need for bulbs (I never knew there were so many different kinds) or batteries, I will visit this store instead. Needless to say, if our cats decide to attack any of our cell phones again, we will bring them straight to Sterling again. read more

Shop here if you want a great selection, lower prices (due in some cases to cheaply made products), and great customer service from expert staff. I actually wrote a bad review for a different location of this franchise (probably the one on Brodie) and only tried this store because it was close to my house and I needed a specialty item quickly. They were amazing! They had what I needed, were friendly and courteous, extremely knowledgeable- the guy I talked to is probably only working retail because of where our Austin economy is right now. He can solve Ah (amp-hour) equations in his head! I'm a little nerdy, so when I got home I tried to solve the same equation he used to answer my question, not an easy task. read more

My Honda key fob needed a new battery, but I couldn't get the screw out and ended up stripping it!!! Arg!! I took the Fob over to Batteries Plus, and they managed to get it open and replace the battery for only the cost of the battery.. thanks Batteries Plus! read more

Very knowledgeable, helpful, and kind. Helped me with my Battery needs and cell phone contacts transfer. All for free and better service than Verizon store. read more

I've used these guys for a long time, especially for those hard to find batteries. No hassle, very pleasant staff with nice attitude . The guy who helped me knew his stuff, and was able to help me in numerous projects. read more

Always great service here. Knowledgable staff. They replace iPhone screens now for way less than other places!!

Employees were unknowledgeable and condescending to me. I didn't appreciate my experience there and won't be going back to any of their locations. read more

We had a car battery problem while out at brunch. After trying two different jumps, we still couldn't get the truck jumped and discovered this shop just up the road. We called ahead before planning to walk down, and Mance generously offered to drive to us and give us a jump! He graciously and quickly found us in the parking lot, jumped the truck, and helped us install a new battery. That is the kind of hospitality and consideration that earns customers for life. Thank you Mance! read more

Very helpful and had the very old (and not-in-production-anymore) battery I needed! Large selection of batteries, plus I got a whole bunch of coupons that never expire! Also, battery recycling on site (and you get 10% off your purchase when you bring in recycling!). read more

Top notch customer service, they even soldered the connection in my keyless car fob, free of charge!

For maybe the first time ever, battery shopping doesn't have to be an expensive and time wasting drudge. Excellent service from these fine gentlemen. Not only did they help me with my somewhat complicated car battery problems, but everyone in the store was crowing about how happy they were. The pedicab guy was delighted by how they helped him trick out his ride and the old ladies got their watch batteries. And the prices were much better than Pep Boys or O'reilly for my auto battery. These guys rock. read more

These guys are very good. I took my iPhone in to get the screen replaced. It's perfect now. Fast service and competitive pricing.

These people are extremely rude there were two guys working there when I went in one was helping a costumer and the other was on a computer in the back and I stood there for about 5 minutes when the guy helping the costumer came out and without looking up and speaking very low it was hard to hear he said "sorry for the wait mam" that's when I left he could not even look up and the other guy could not stop and help a costumer I had a simple question read more

After my horrible experience with the AT&T store, they pointed me to the direction of this location and it was actually the best thing they could do for me. I was greeted by an extremely helpful associate. I came in there frustrated and he just took my phone, looked up the info, grabbed the correct battery, in which they had tons of and asked me what was going on with my phone. Without any knowledge about my phone he helped me even fix my phone and said that it had a lot to do with the battery and gave me pointers. I was ecstatic, I mean was I really getting excellent customer service? You mean I didn't have to flash money around, or be extremely hot to get this kind of service? Your kidding? It was amazing! He rang me up and it came out to be less than if I were to buy it at the AT&T store, BONUS! There's even a one year warranty on the battery, so if by some chance it doesn't work, I can take it back and they would give me a new one! You mean I don't have to send it in? Call a technician? Awesome! I was extremely impressed by how easy it was for them to find exactly what I was looking for, ring me up, inform me about their warranties and give me coupons for next time. (Which I am certainly using ANYTIME I need a battery, this place rocks!) Now if they could only help me find my keys, all would be right in the world..... LOL read more

Cracked my phone screen like a ding dong, and the extremely helpful folks at we fix it replaced the screen in a jiffy, and for an amazing price! I have had screen repairs done a couple of times, including at the cell phone store, and this was far and away the cheapest, fastest, and best. read more

I went in to ask for a watch band. They don't sell the product, but they did their best to give me ideas where I could find it. They saved me from wasted trips to Target and WalMart. I get my batteries here for my car key clicker, and I will continue to do so. read more

Needed a battery for a motorcycle. Dealer wanted almost three times as much. Batteries Plus THE place to go!!!

The folks here are super helpful and they have a huge selection of battery types. I also find the location very convenient for me.

Was told by B+ email that my item (ordered by the B+ website) was "ready to be picked up!" at the assigned Austin, TX store. I showed up at the store and they had no idea what I was talking about until looking at some info, I guess on their B+ website, and they then told me it might be another week before the item comes in. I traveled fairly far to get the item which I guess I'll have to repeat -- this pretty much wipes out the value of the 10% discount I'll get at the Store (for ordering online) when the item does ever come in. Nat'l B+ entity needs to get it schnizel together.... read more

Love the guys at this location. I went there after a terrible experience at the Brodie location. I will never go back to Brodie even though it's closer to my house....stickin' with S. Lamar! read more

Long overdue review........ best place to buy any battery! They will install in your car at no charge. I also found for a few bucks a rare battery (I think) for a clock that I last paid almost $30 for at a clock specialty shop. Their service is also friendly and helpful, who would have thought a guy at a battery store loves his job :) read more

I would give these guys 20 stars if I could. I got my iPhone 6 screen fixed with them. Couldn't have found a better price at any other shop around, and their customer service was amazing. Now I can text in public, without the shame of having a screen that made me look like a clumsy, irresponsible, garbage person. read more
