Megaware Engineering

Megaware BatteryGuard ™ acts like a shock absorber and can help extend the life of your expensive battery. Excessive shock and vibration are two of the leading causes of battery failure. Megaware BatteryGuard sits under your battery and absorbs the G-Shock caused by excessive shock and vibration. Protect your battery from premature failure, and prevent damage from road impacts, rough water, and mechanical vibration.

The Megaware BatteryGuard protects many types of batteries including Deep-cycle, Lead Acid, AGM, and Lithium-Ion. Great for boats, RVs, semi trucks, heavy equipment, and off-road vehicles.

Save money and get the most performance from your batteries by protecting them with the Megaware BatteryGuard ™.

Battery G Shock Performance Comparison

Scientific explanation: When a battery is subjected to extreme vibration and shock, cracks occur at the interface of mechanical joints inside the battery and its cells. While some batteries are designed to withstand these forces better than others, all batteries can be damaged by shock and vibration over time. 

Battery failure will often be preceded by performance fading. This is because the stress of shock and vibration causes micro fractures inside the battery which reduce internal conductivity and cause a battery to have low voltage. Over time, as the micro fractures continue to propagate in the battery’s conductive components, internal resistances increase. This condition reduces the flow of amps which are required to power electrical components. 

Another cause of performance fading is the physical collision of battery plates as a result of shock and vibration. This condition causes a short in a cell or cells. This also, may cause a battery to have low voltage and insufficient power.

Note: Clamping the battery too tightly in place and compressing the pad may decrease the pad’s effectiveness.

Caution: This product may excrete oil and stain certain surfaces and is recommended for placement in battery trays or boxes only.

FAQ About BatteryGuard

Most frequent questions and answers

The Megaware BatteryGuard™ is a shock-absorbing mat designed to extend the life of batteries by protecting them from excessive vibration and impact, which are leading causes of battery failure. Placed under the battery in its tray or box, it reduces up to 80% of G-shock caused by rough water, road impacts, or mechanical vibration.

The Megaware BatteryGuard™ works by absorbing and dissipating shock and vibration that can damage batteries. Placed under the battery in its tray or box, the mat reduces up to 80% of G-shock from impacts, such as those caused by rough water, road vibrations, or mechanical jolts in boats, RVs, or heavy equipment. This minimizes internal battery damage, like microfractures or plate collisions, which can degrade performance and shorten lifespan. By stabilizing the battery and maintaining its internal structure, the BatteryGuard helps ensure consistent conductivity and longer battery life.

 The Megaware BatteryGuard™ protects a wide range of battery types, including deep-cycle, lead-acid, AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat), and lithium-ion batteries. It’s designed to fit virtually any battery up to Group 31 size (12.75″ x 6.88″ or smaller, trimmable for custom fit) and is compatible with batteries used in boats, RVs, semi-trucks, ATVs, and heavy equipment.

To install the Megaware BatteryGuard™, follow these simple steps:

  1. Prepare the Battery Tray: Ensure the battery tray or box is clean, dry, and free of debris or corrosion.
  2. Place the Mat: Position the BatteryGuard mat (12.75″ x 6.88″ x 0.375″) flat in the tray. If needed, trim the mat with scissors or a utility knife (follow the grid pattern) to fit your battery size (up to Group 31).
  3. Set the Battery: Place the battery on top of the mat, ensuring it sits evenly.
  4. Secure the Battery: Fasten the battery with its clamp or strap, but avoid over-tightening, as this can reduce the mat’s shock-absorbing effectiveness.

The Megaware BatteryGuard™ is designed to fit virtually any battery up to Group 31 size (12.75″ x 6.88″ x 0.375″) or smaller. The BatteryGuard has a grid pattern and is trimmable for smaller batteries like Group 24 or 27. For larger batteries you can use multiple BatteryGuards. 

The Megaware BatteryGuard™ works by absorbing and dissipating shock and vibration that can damage batteries. This minimizes internal battery damage, like microfractures or plate collisions, which can degrade performance and shorten lifespan. By stabilizing the battery and maintaining its internal structure, the BatteryGuard helps ensure consistent conductivity and longer battery life.

The Megaware BatteryGuard™ is a robust solution for safeguarding your batteries, particularly in demanding environments prone to shock and vibration. Engineered to absorb up to 80% of G-shock, this protective pad can significantly extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of various battery types, including lithium-ion, deep-cycle, lead acid, and AGM. Its universal design comfortably accommodates most batteries up to Group 31 and can be easily trimmed for a perfect fit in any battery tray. Choosing the Megaware BatteryGuard™ means investing in a product specifically designed to mitigate the damaging effects of rough conditions, ultimately saving you money on battery replacements. Furthermore, you are supporting a small family business with a product proudly made in the USA.

Yes, the Megaware BatteryGuard™ was designed to protect a wide range of battery types, including deep-cycle, lead-acid, AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat), and lithium-ion batteries. It is compatible with batteries used in boats, RVs, semi-trucks, ATVs, and heavy equipment.
