Shri Manjunatha Battery Works

We operate Shri Manjunatha Battery Works over at number 91 in Nehru Nagar, Vyalikaval. It’s a heavy-duty kind of place. Batteries are bulky and they can be messy, so the shop reflects that. We have stacks of them near the walls, some new and some old ones waiting to be recycled. It’s mostly just us lifting things and checking voltages all day. The floor is concrete and has some stains from battery acid here and there. We don't have a fancy office area, just a small desk where we keep the ledger and some pens. Most of our work is done right there at the front. People drive up when their cars won't start, and we see what we can do. It can be a bit quiet in the middle of the day, but mornings are usually a rush. We’ve been in this neighborhood for a while and the people here know they can just drop by. We don't use computers much, mostly just doing things by hand. The air in the shop smells a bit like lead and chemicals, which is just part of the job. We keep a few basic tools handy. It’s not a glamorous business, but it's what we know how to do. We usually close up when the sun goes down and head home tired. There is always a lot of heavy lifting involved in this trade.
