Not every commercial vehicle fleet comprises hundreds or thousands of vehicles. There are plenty of small businesses operating localized fleets across the country. From boutique delivery services with just a few vans to regional computer repair firms running a dozen service vehicles, the needs of smaller fleets are not particularly different from their larger counterparts. Operational continuity is the lifeblood of these fleets and the businesses behind them.
Smaller fleets are at a distinct disadvantage in that they are not likely to have redundant vehicles and dedicated on-site mechanics. So a single dead battery can be a huge disruption. That small fleet can be derailed for an entire day if just one vehicle will not start. To avoid such costly failures, small businesses across the country deploy the Clore Automotive brand in the garage.
Consumer Grade Doesn’t Cut It
Clore Automotive is well known in the industry for its commercial-grade battery testers, chargers, maintainers, and jump starters. They are becoming increasingly popular among small businesses with limited fleets for one simple reason: where consumer-grade products don’t cut it, Clore Automotive gets the job done time after time.
When a fleet vehicle cannot start, its driver needs a swift, safe, and definitive solution. That solution is found in commercial-grade equipment. Commercial fleets should never trust consumer-grade products to keep vehicles running.
Downtime Is Costly for Fleets
Because small fleets rarely have reserve capacity, downtime becomes costly. Every vehicle is tied to a specific route or service window. There is very little wiggle room built in. So if a delivery van’s battery is drained overnight because of an auxiliary light being inadvertently left on, not being able to start it in the morning creates problems. The longer the vehicle remains parked, the problems continue to stack up.
A fleet at less than 100% capacity leads to:
- Revenue losses by way of missed service calls and delayed deliveries.
- Operational inefficiencies as technicians work to get the dead vehicle started.
- Unhappy customers forced to adapt to delayed service or delivery schedules.
While standard jumper cables and consumer-grade jump starters can work in a pinch, they lack the technical architecture and robust construction necessary to support commercial-duty activities. Professional fleet managers require industrial-grade reliability. It is why so many prefer Clore Automotive’s primary product lines: Jump-N-Carry and Booster PAC.
Technical Reliability Is a Must
To the small business owner and his fleet manager, technical reliability is a must. They look to Clore Automotive because the brand’s professional battery chargers and jump starters are engineered to withstand even the harshest commercial environments. From a technical perspective, the brand offers critical operational advantages:
- Superior current delivery and duty cycles.
- Advanced battery maintenance diagnostics.
- Industrial-grade build quality.
Clore’s Jump-N-Carry portable jump starters are built with proprietary high-performance batteries engineered specifically for starting commercial vehicles. They deliver exceptional cranking power over longer periods of time, guaranteeing that even the most stubborn commercial engine will turn over on the first try.
Practical Integration for Smaller Fleets
The Clore Automotive brand represents practical integration for smaller fleets of a dozen vehicles or fewer. Here is another way to put it: commercial-grade equipment from Clore isn’t reserved only for corporate entities and their giant fleets. The brand considers even the smallest fleets primary customers.
Small businesses with smaller fleets depend on their vehicles as much as the big boys. More than ever before, they need reliable maintenance and repair equipment that maximizes every vehicle’s uptime. Clore Automotive fits the bill with reliable, heavy-duty, commercial-grade equipment – battery chargers, battery testers, and both stationary and portable jump starters.
