Take Good Care of Your Headset Batteries

Headsets, timer systems, and outdoor equipment such as microphones for customers in the lane to deliver fast service, avoid mistakes, and provide a quality drive-thru experience.  However, these top-tier drive-thru equipments aren’t the only ones required to keep drive-thru’s operating at a smooth, effective pace.

When smaller drive-thru parts are not well maintained they can easily cause slowdowns, service mistakes, and dissatisfied customers. For example, when headset batteries aren’t well cleaned and maintained, customers and crew members will be discouraged. Paying constant attention to these four practices will facilitate fast service and long life for batteries:

✅Regularly clean your battery contacts and charger ports with a cotton swab moistened with rubbing alcohol. Always unplug the battery charger before cleaning.

✅Be sure to plug the charger into a regular electrical outlet, not a switched/timed outlet.

✅Recharge batteries only when they are low. Prevent draining the batteries by turning off the power on your COM® before storing the batteries.

✅Always remove batteries from the charger before storing them in a cool dry space.

Even when you take good care of your batteries, they will eventually wear out. CE can help when you need to purchase new batteries for an HME, Panasonic or 3M/PAR system.
