You know the signs when your car battery is dead – or at least on its last leg: when you turn on your car, and the engine cranks but won’t start. And then when you can’t even get the engine to crank or the lights to turn on.
At that point, your battery right really be dead – like, in a you-need-to-replace-it-not-just-jump-start-it-again way if it seems like you have to jump start your car more often than you should (like more than two or three times per week!).
But what do you do after that? Is there no life after death for your car battery once it is deemed caput?
You may be in luck. It turns out there are plenty of good uses — survival uses — for car batteries once they can no longer service your car!
Take a look on the next page to see how you can reuse a car battery that is no longer functioning and use it during those pivotal survival moments. It turns out an old car battery can actually be very useful to your survival!
