Connor helped me today. He is always so nice and explains everything that he is doing. My fob stopped working properly. So he reminded me that I paid for a lifetime of batteries therefore he changed it and I didn't have to pay anything. He walked out to my car several spots from the front door and made sure it worked well. Thank you Connor for caring about me and my car. This is why I always come to this store because of the way I am treated!! Thank you. Tom Klansnic read more

Wonderful customer service staff that goes above and beyond. I definitely recommend this store.

Needed a new car battery. Shopped online. Decided on batteries plus because I got 18% discount for signing up for their email... was supposed to get a discount and the $22 core deposit. Secured the discount at the store when I got the battery installed. They did not give me my core deposit back. Even after I said something about it. The guy gaslit me saying that's what he did when he had me run my card was give me a refund on my credit card for the discount and core charge.. so I was like "whatever your math doesn't add up, but $22 isn't gonna break me so I just left. I got home and did the math again on a calculator.. and sure enough I was right. I was exactly $22 over what it should have been. Battery works fine and it was installed and ready to go within 15 minutes. Only complaint is screwing me over for the $22 core charge. Ps. I waited until it cleared on my credit card to write this review hoping it would finalize as the correct amount but.... read more

After being told by another outlet I had to buy a new iPhone, I went to this store for a battery replacement. I was nervous about leaving my phone with them, but they had it done in about an hour and it turned out great. For cellphone batteries, I highly recommend this business. read more

My watch battery was dead. I went to the Hollywood Fred Meyer, but the jeweler there could not fix it. I was pretty frustrated about possibly having to drive downtown. However, I was directed by the clerk at Fred's to try the batteries plus. When I got there I received efficient and prompt service at a fair price. The person who got me a new battery explained to me that they only work on watches that are less than $500 in price. Although this made me feel a bit class conscious, because my watch was not expensive, I still thought he was friendly and chatty. It was a good experience. read more

I will not go back to this location. Twice the manager on duty went out of his way to not help. told me 4 or 5 times, multiple reasons I could not get my core refund. I told him 1 way I could. At which point he started mentioning other options. Since at the point it was simply easier for him .. Advised perhaps next time he worry about helping the customer. Not saying No No and No.. Prior experience was similar. On a 10 percent off. no no and no until I showed him how to make it Yes. Grief.. Retrain the guy.In hospitality as well as knowing his job.. Date was 1/28/2024 at 12 or so... read more

Impeccable service from Ashley. The entire staff knows their stuff, they go way beyond simple order taking. The selection keeps getting better and better. Sure, if you look hard enough on Amazon/EBay you'll find a slightly better deal, but you also get bit on occasion by cheap knock-offs. The small parking lot is the only negative, especially that two spots in front of the physical therapy business are prohibited. read more

Came in yesterday to pick up fresh batteries for my smoke alarms. Over the years I have been here a few dozen times. Never thought a store that focuses on batteries and bulbs could stay in business, but turns out when I need these items, I do stop here! It's convenient, I pull right up, tell the staff what I need, they hand it to me and I'm on my way. Yes, sometimes the prices are a bit higher, but for the convenience, I'm ok with that no,us they give you. 10% off coupon and they often have really good specials on AA & AAA batteries, the ones I use the most. Staff is friendly and thorough. Cash register seems outdated a bit based on the time it takes to actually pay! But all in all, this place meets my needs and I'll keep coming back. read more

Batteries Plus - Battery Stores Near Me - Portland, Oregon

See all

I've been to this store several times over the last few years and have been very satisfied. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They efficiently helped me find special batteries for various devices and unusual bulbs for some of my fixtures, and handled several iPhone repairs quickly. Easy walk in service. read more

These guys are great. I needed batteries for air tags. They opened the devices and put the tags in. I couldn't get them open despite my best tries. They can do all sorts of things, like fix phones. Love their service and this place! read more

Great service, I dropped off a bunch of 4' fluorescent tubes for recycling and bought a 100w led bulb for a table lamp , took less than 5 minutes read more

I've used this batteries plus several times over the years. They've always been courteous and helpful even during the pandemic. Their products have always been top notch and performed as expected. They aren't the cheapest, but cheap is not always good. I have no problems coming here again when I need to, just wish it was closer to my home. read more

Great selection of batteries. This is where I come to find the ones I can't find elsewhere, except I have learned to start here so I don't waste time looking elsewhere. And they recycle the dead guys! read more

What an unexpected surprise this business and it's staff were to me today! Recently, I lost the spare key to my Toyota. And while I was out running errands today, I noticed an advertisement in their window indicating that they make car keys and key FOBs. I decided to give them a try. I walked in and I was immediately welcomed by Jeff who then assisted me. He looked up my vehicle and explained that they could make either for my vehicle and he gave me the prices. I thanked him for his help and told him that I wanted to think about it since the FOB was about twice the price, and I wondered if I could get by with just the key. He suggested I think about it and thanked me for coming in and handed me a flyer with a coupon for 10% off. Next I called the parts department at the Toyota dealership. Sadly, the assistance was less friendly and the FOB was more than 3 times the price of the one at Batteries + Bulbs. Yikes!! I quickly returned to Battery + Bulbs, and was greeted by Rob who was also very friendly. He told me it could take up to 45 minutes to make the key FOB that I decided on, so I just took a seat in the store and pulled out my phone. While I waited I saw several other customers come in with various needs and requests and every one of them left happy and satisfied. How often do you see that? Rob was finished in about 20 minutes, and I was on my way with a new FOB that was identical to the one I already had from Toyota, except for the Toyota logo on the back of my old one. But that's probably a good thing though, since it would remind me of the money that I probably wasted at the Toyota dealership over the years taking care of my 2 vehicles there. Batteries + Bulbs is definitely a business that I will be calling upon again for my additional needs; batteries from my remote controls to my cordless power tools, and even car keys. I love this place!!! read more

I had already decided not to pay $20 for a quick battery change on a $2 battery. But I did want to buy a battery! One employee was explaining the entire concept of electrical batteries to a customer with an auto battery. Seriously. The other person wouldn't take 30 seconds to ring up my purchase before going to the back of the store looking for a lady who left her watch for a battery change. Since I'd been in the store for 10-15 minutes already, I left, ordered my battery from Amazon, and just spent all of 2 minutes putting it in my car key. Guess I'm becoming less patient in my old age, but can't waste time at this age either!!! read more

Horrible!! Broken screen fix quote for $120 1 1/2 hours to finish. Went to excellent, efficient PDX iPhone Repair for $60 and 20 minuets of my time. You suck batteries plus read more

Tried to drop off alkaline batteries to recycle. Note: they require a purchase in order to do so. The city of Portland should NOT have this establishment on their website if a purchase is required. read more

Absolutely the best. Broadway B+B has the greatest staff, super friendly and helpful. Had the marine batteries I needed, in and out in 10 minutes. read more

Batteries Plus - Hook'n up some new group 27 batteries for my boat. - Battery Stores Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Before Pandemic, I was shopping for some Antique style toys (made with wood) for my Darling Husband for the Holidays. I located the Jacob's Ladder which makes a joyous "Click Clack" sound when you rotate the first piece of wood... near the front door to this Batteries Plus Bulbs located on Northeast Broadway. We have purchased many of our replacement front Windshield Wipers for our older Prius here as well. The counter clerk was courteous and efficient. And there is a smaller parking lot... should you require parking. We have also bought light bulbs here in the past as well. There are usually a few of the button type batteries... if you are looking for the flat ones. During one trip I noticed that the 2032 batteries weren't available... but, I was told when I asked that the new shipment would be arriving within the next five days. There were also some Genius metal puzzles (those are the kind with two or three pieces that interlock or slide/ fit together)... I had already bought some... but it's good to know that you can also buy Genius metal puzzles at the Batteries Plus Bulbs. It's been over five years since we were shopping here for anything. I recommend writing down the specific letters and numbers on your button size batteries. It's waaaaay easier to find them on the shelves that way. read more

There pretty good honest people don't even want to hassle u for your money they are super nice

Here we are, on the way to the shore and without a charger for the camera. Well, we can't have that. Only problem was that the camera was really new, and Panasonic loves to change their battery spec every single bloody time. So Camera World says no, Fred Meyer's just chuckles at us; but at least they recommended Batteries Plus. Not only did we get a charger and an extra battery, but these guys really knew their stuff. I have no idea what kind of geekery goes into knowing about batteries. I myself am fond of a different flavor. But our host was knowledgable to the point of absurdity, something I look for in a good EE nerd. He was also very nice to open the packages and double check that everything worked for us. He didn't want us getting to the coast to find our charger didn't work. That was really a nice move. After getting home and checking online, prices all seem fair and their stock is well above par. They also have batteries for just about anything under the sun, from cars to boats to phones. read more

I went into BPB today to have the battery in my Iphone replaced. After speaking to people at the downtown Apple Store (which will be summed up in a different review), I decided on BPB because they offer a good warranty on parts and labor. Since there are so many cheap batteries out there, I figured the added cost of labor would be worth the added confidence that their product was backed by a larger company than Joe's Fly By Night Battery Replacement (apologies if that's actually a real company (for more than one reason)). Anyway, I made an appointment online the night before and received a $10 off coupon which made the service a little more reasonable. Once inside I discussed the issue with a couple of the guys, who obviously had experience with similar issues and also a similar dislike of the language that Apple uses to basically show you the door. "Overconsumed" battery? What is that? Before opening the phone up, which Apple was afraid to do, we discussed symptoms. And then the guy was like "well the only way to know is to take a look" Again, something Apple didn't want to do because of liability. He got it open, no problem, found that the battery was indeed enlarged, replaced it and closed the whole thing back up in a few minutes. I was there for only 36 minutes total. The actual switch just took a few minutes and much of the rest of the time was spent speaking to the knowledgable and funny outside sales rep. She is part of the family that owns the franchise. If you ever need bulbs for your commercial business, you should call her, although, sorry I didn't catch her name! Long story short, good work, fair-ish price, knowledgable staff, no attitude, and reassurance that the back their work and products. The only reason they don't get 5 stars is that the appoinment I went to the trouble of making wasn't obviously in their system. But that didn't matter today since I walked right in and got helped. read more

Twice I've been here. Great Service, very functional store with personal technical help added. 1st time was to try and rescue a drowned phone. The advice was great. It was not fixed here, but the fella behind the counter took his time to work with me- 2nd time in I just was looking to replace some headphones so I could field calls while driving. The young man showed me what they offered. It was a nice simple set $9.99. I went for it and they really seem to work out. I am very specific about headphone buds and how they fit in my ear ----so whether it's a nine dollar purchase or a 40 dollar purchase, they have to fit a certain way. Anyway, the service was sincere and solid for such a dinky purchase. Thanks for offering friendly, helpful service. I highly recommend if you have any tech issues or some problem solving. They have some quirky stuff in here as well. Stocking Stuffers! read more

I just went there to recycle some lithium ion batteries. The person who was staffing the place was extremely friendly and accommodating, even though I wasn't buying anything in that particular trip there. He just said, "think of us for your future needs." I will certainly be going there, the next time I need light bulbs. read more

Excellent Customer Service-I took my iPhone in for a screen replacement after it took a tumble. The very pleasant manager let me know that it was an after market product but since I had heard good things about their screen replacement- and the price was less than at the Apple store I went ahead. The phone worked fine for a week then the screen lost all touch capabilities rendering my phone useless. I took it back to Batteries Plus and the very pleasant manager gave me a full refund with no hassle. While I can't recommend screen replacement there I can recommend a company who values its customers and does what it can to make it right. read more

Car batteries? YES! Go here. Thought the wife's car battery had a little more time left on it. After jumping it so she could drive across town, it wouldn't hold a charge. Batteries Plus was close and open which were our only criteria at the time. Glad this was the case! Sales staff was super helpful, even loaning me tools and helping me figure out exactly how to connect the new battery (Audi TT, battery is in the trunk and there are a few non-traditional connections required). Don't dick around in other stores - all these guys do is batteries, they know their stuff, and are personable AND intelligent. Seriously, Go here. read more

The car battery was dead. We had jumped the battery to get it to the store. Along with the car. They're kind of a package deal. Car / battery. Battery / car. I like the symmetry. Went into the store. Told the guy my problems. He sold me a battery. Lent me the tools I needed to get the job done there in the parking lot. Came out a couple of times when I got stuck. Jiggled wires. Moved things. Sold me a cap to size the terminals properly. Ya. It was a good day. Well, 24 minutes and some odd second. These guys ain't no RadioShack, battery of the month club. I like the cut of their jib. read more

This Battery and Bulbs is in Vancouver, WA at 1218 N.E. 88th St across from Winn Co.on Hwy.99, not the one that comes up on Yelp! Needed a battery for a hand held weed wacker. None available so these folks took our old battery and rebuilt it perfectly. Great service and so nice with whom to deal. Highly recommend this location for sales and service. read more

I went into get a battery replaced for my watch that I had just gotten replaced by them a couple weeks earlier. The battery was low quality? Not sure. The customer service representative "Rob" gave me professional service with no hassle. The process Took less than three minutes and he informed me that it was "on the house". SWEET! Wasn't expecting that... I then asked about some recessed LED lighting they had on display. He gave me knowledgeable information and informed me there was rebates and discounts associated with that product. I ended up saving $60 overall on the purchase and I'm very pleased. This is how traditional commerce should be. Will definitely be back again. Thanks Rob! read more

Totally disappointed that they have signs advertising they fix all different types of items, only to arrive at that location to be told they don't. Prior to my arrival I spent over five minutes on hold to confirm whether or not they do or not, but it was totally my bad I guess for not spending more time on hold to actually speak with someone. read more

I was experiencing a connectivity issue with my iPhone for months and was having to finally consider purchasing a replacement. So glad I found this place. As a first time customer I am very impressed. The team here seems very capable and efficient. I received help from Marcos who was courteous and knowledgeable and fixed my iPhone surprisingly fast. Best of all the fee was less than what I expected. If you are experiencing connectivity issues with your iPhone, consider checking this place out! read more

I thought I needed a battery for.my watch, but Mr. Battery checked it and it was still fully charged. He spent maybe ten minutes cleaning the space where the back goes, so there would be a good seal, then he wrestled with a teeny gasket till it was all better. BONUS: No Charge!! Go there now. He says they also have the light bulbs that give you good ideas. If I'd needed a battery, they have a lifetime option that costs less than having two new batteries put in at Fred Meyer! read more

They sell a bunch of different types of batteries. Computers, cameras, watches, whatever. I found the customer service to be a no frills affair, but there really isn't too much small talk that accompanies battery purchases, at least the majority of time there isn't. I feel like you can probably find better prices on the internet (I didn't check for my watch battery), but if you need something obscure and quicker than the internet can deliver then go thee to the Batteries Plus. read more

Haven't purchased anything here, but we did return a battery. Staples wanted $10 to return it, and Batteries Plus took it for free. Looks like they have a surprising selection of batteries - everything from cell phone to watch to car and UPS batteries. Plus, the one I returned to them would have been $20-30 less to buy here. read more

The employees at the NE Broadway store are the best! Knowledgeable, friendly and resourceful. The store is well located, with a small convenient parking lot and highly visible sign. read more

I went in today to ask about laptop batteries and was met by an very rude customer "assistant". I would like to go into a technology store and see a really helpful salesperson instead of a snob, who thinks he/she is the only one who knows all about all things computer and electronic. Get over yourselves, guys and be a REAL help !! C.L., Portland read more

Been going to this store for many years. Every time the counter employees have been knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile. I have replaced batteries in batteries backup units to watches. A few years ago they replaced my "Tim Allen" power drill battery pack. Today I brought it in thinking it was toast and I needed a new one. After inspection they thought that maybe the main unit might be getting a little corrosion on the connections and suggested I clean them off, try the battery pack again and see that solves the problem. And it did! Point being, they weren't just trying to sell me something, they were trying to help me solve a problem. This is how you earn your customers trust and appreciation. Highly recommend (and they recycle used batteries too!). Five star service read more

I went there looking for a Power Adapter for a Bluetooth Device, after going to RadioShack. I was greeted, but the helpfulness stopped there, the guy there didn't even check his adapters, just said that he didn't have it, and that I needed a special one with more power, which makes no sense at all, you match up the Voltage and Amperage and then the plug size. Then he changed his mind and said that I needed a charger style power adapter. Obviously he doesn't know much about electrical mechanics, or what customer service is. He argued with me for about 5 minutes. He told me to go to some other store out in Beaverton somewhere. He NEVER even tried to find an adapter for me. LAST TIME I EVER GO THERE. PS My mom had bought the expensive 10 year batteries for smoke detectors, and 1 of them didn't even have a charge and took it back for an exchange with the receipt 1 day after she bought them and they wouldn't exchange them, in fact they accused her of running it down. One of them said "I can put in an electric guitar and kill it in 20 minutes" read more

We've been in Portland for a total of about 14 days on two different trips and somehow our batteries have gone out in both our cars. These guys are extremely helpful. On the latest occasion the young gentlemen even walked a couple blocks down to the shell station my car was stranded at and tested my battery. Will definitely return. read more
