Why this site?

Our particularities

So, how is this site different from the others, and what can it bring?
Best-Batteries.com is a rather special shop, as it is not just an online shop allowing its visitors to buy products. It has been designed and conceived to be a cross between a traditional e-commerce, an article directory, a purchasing aid and a product review site.

Where most online stores will offer you a catalogue of items selected for the sole purpose of making margin (and therefore able to offer you products that are objectively poor or of poor quality, on the pretext that the commercial margin is interesting), and where generally the commercial argument takes precedence over impartial and disinterested advice regarding the product to be sold, we have decided to present only the products that we have tested and for which we have validated quality and durability (and generally functionality). When a supplier asks us "so I guess you want to add our best sale to your catalogue", we answer "no, we want to add to our catalogue, the best of your products in terms of quality".

This impartiality that we want to be essential in our selection of products, added to the modest size of our company (compared to some of the mastodons on the net), has also pushed us to make a drastic choice in our editorial line, namely to offer articles that we do not have in stock, but that some partners offer. If a product is out of stock with us, or if we simply have not (yet) added to our catalogue, but we know that it is the best in the field, then we add it to our section, with, if possible, the choice left to our visitors to choose between different partners. It is thus possible for us to really list the best products, even when we are not able to sell them directly. But it helps the visitor to make the right choice.


It is also with this in mind that our team of testers reviews all the products we offer. What better way to find out which product is the best in its category than to test it, in real conditions, to abuse or even torture it (torture-test). This is exactly the mission of our testers, who, on a daily basis, and even during their holidays, test a certain number of items in order to determine their effectiveness, strength and durability in vivo. We push these items to their limits, subjecting them to tests that almost hurt us, such as placing them in extreme cold, humidity or heat conditions, dropping them, running them non-stop for days, etc. If a product has withstood our battery of tests without blinking, then it deserves its place in our ranking of the best products. We can thus guarantee our entire offer. Not to mention the fact that it's very fun, and that our testers often get off on testing new equipment and killing a number of them.

Note: If you are a supplier and would like to see one or more of your products appear in our catalogue, and you are confident in the quality and durability of your devices (related to the theme of batteries, of course), do not hesitate to contact our team, via the "Contact" page, to send us one or more samples, so that our review team can test their durability and functionality.

Our philosophy, our commitments

Another specificity that we have made our own is the ethics and the eco-responsible, sustainable and fair aspect of our work, as much as possible. We take pride in ensuring that our carbon, energy and ecological footprint is the best possible... It is impossible, for example, for a company claiming to be an energy specialist, not to be supplied with as much green and sustainable energy as possible. That is why all our installations are powered by photovoltaic panels and a wind turbine, with advanced energy management systems. We are proud to have fully positive energy premises. In the same way, we make it a point of honour to donate part of our income to reforestation, and to support local initiatives that we consider positive for the environment and biodiversity. This is an everyday struggle, which we want to fight as much as we can. We are aware that the technology of a certain number of devices that we propose in our catalogue are either not very ecological or difficult to recycle, or that they have to travel long distances to come to France, but we do our best to reduce these negative aspects as much as possible, and compensate them by other responsible actions.

Our goal is, and this apart from any commercial discourse widely heard everywhere, to provide our customers, the best possible service and the most impartial choice, and our visitors, the best advice and the best selection, so that they can choose or be informed in complete confidence, in order to make their purchase choice, whether it is with us, with one of our commercial partners, or anywhere else.
