Emergency medical services (EMS) are the backbone of public safety, providing critical care when seconds matter most. To ensure first responders are fully prepared, it's vital to equip them with reliable tools powered by dependable EMS battery solutions. At Batteries Plus, we offer essential batteries, flashlights, and emergency lighting solutions to keep your EMS teams ready for action. Here's a breakdown of the top emergency items your department needs to stay prepared and operational.

Vehicle Batteries for EMS Fleets

Your EMS fleet is essential to providing rapid response and critical care in emergencies. Having reliable vehicle batteries is crucial to ensuring that your ambulances and other emergency vehicles are always ready to roll. At Batteries Plus, we offer a wide selection of vehicle batteries specifically designed for heavy-duty use in emergency medical services, like our X2Power batteries which are built to withstand the demands of emergency vehicles, ensuring consistent power for sirens, lights, and other essential onboard equipment.

Alkaline Batteries for Critical EMS Equipment

Alkaline batteries power a wide range of critical EMS tools, from 2-way radios to portable monitors and flashlights. At Batteries Plus, we offer multiple performance levels of alkaline batteries to meet the unique needs of your department. Our experts will help you choose the best solution for each application, streamlining your procurement process by consolidating all your battery needs under one vendor.

Flashlights for Emergency Responders

EMS personnel often work in low-visibility environments, whether responding to nighttime accidents or operating in poorly lit structures. Having reliable lighting tools is essential for providing proper care. Batteries Plus offers a wide range of high-performance flashlights from penlights to impact-resistant tactical models, and hands-free headlamps to ensure that your EMS teams are equipped with the right tools for any situation.

Lithium Coin Cell Batteries for Long-Lasting Performance

Lithium coin cell batteries last up to 6X longer than their alkaline counterparts, making them ideal for applications that demand longevity. These batteries are commonly used in O2 monitoring equipment, thermostats, and additional emergency medical equipment, providing a reliable power source when EMS crews need it most. Longer-lasting batteries also offer a better return on investment, helping your department stretch its budget further.

SLA Batteries for Essential EMS Applications

Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) batteries power a variety of emergency medical equipment. At Batteries Plus, we provide a wide selection of SLA batteries tailored for different needs, including standard options for emergency lighting and deep cycle SLA batteries for backup systems and vital equipment. Our business experts will guide you to the best SLA solution, maximizing efficiency and ensuring your EMS team is always prepared.
