Great job, you got a new
5-star review

"An outstanding product (Dynalite alternator) and simple DIY installation has transformed the electrical system in my Jaguar XK120. Thank you Powerlite!"

Kind words from a happy customer, SP Jul24

"Just wanted to send a note to say thank you both for all your help with my ignition light problem. Thanks to your tenacity the problem is now solved. I have fitted the fuse you sent and the ignition light is now functioning with the wipers, lights etc all working properly. I have to say that today people who go above and beyond are few and far between, but you certainly did that to help me. Customer service is obviously a priority. Thank you once again

A positive update saying problem solved is always appreciated , Jun24

Great feedback from a happy customer received today, it was sent to us directly as they don't have social media, so thank you for taking the time

All I can say is that the service and assistance I received was first rate, I was struggling to get a new starter for my Classic Cadillac and you came through with flying colours, the new purpose built starter motor works perfectly, spins the engine over faster then the old one ever did, is much lighter, looks great and cost far less than I expected to pay for a bespoke starter.

The help and service I received from everyone there was exceptional, my questions were answered promptly and I was kept informed at every stage of the process, any problems were instantly sorted out and I received my new starter quickly with minimum fuss, a huge well done to all concerned.

I would have no problem in recommending your services to anyone in a similar situation.

Thank you so much...a very grateful customer.

Good products.

Fantastic product. The service is exeptional. I have bought two slimline starters for my race cars. The starters are very strong and light just around 3 kg.

Lovely words received from a satfisfied customer, thank you have a great season Apr 24

Always happy to receive feedback ,especially  when its so kind.

"I saw your ad in my TR Register magazine it was about £23.00 a difference between a new standard starter and a powerlite hightorx starter plus your warranty

Placed the order and within an hour I received an email that my order was being processed. Later that day I received a second email telling me that the starter was dispatched and the item would be with me in the next day or two starter arrived the next day afternoon which was totally amazing.

Fitted the hightorx starter and wow I was amazed at how fast my tr6 started it was basically instant.

I really like your product very compact lightweight starter that really packs a punch

Powerlite I would recommend your company to anyone for service and communication is commendable keep up the great work."

A lovely email received to brighten a gloomy  morning

Exceptional products

Exceptional products. Make an enormous difference to older dynamo-equipped vehicles. Charging from tick-over is a game changer. Support from sales and technical staff was also top drawer. I have more than one of these devices on my cars and would recommend them to anyone.

Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to leave feedback, we're glad your as happy with the products as we are Happy Motoring Team Powerlite

"I recently bought one of your excellent starter motors. It was delivered rapidly without any problems. The only problem was me. I had ordered the wrong one....totally my fault.I phoned the office, where you were more than helpful.A new one was dispatched which again arrived the next day. I returned mine and you credited me without even a handling charge!"

Great product and a great service......I would and will certainly recommend you to my motoring friends.

Thanks again for a great experience...

"Just a quick, but sincere, 'Thank You' for turning around the refurb of my RAC429 starter motor so quickly.  Looking at it, I suspect I have now got a new unit. 

Nevertheless, having sent it to you only on Thursday, to have it back now (Wednesday) with a Bank Holiday weekend in between is great service. 

Thanks especially to Julian who understood the urgency (to get the car ready for an event overseas) and did all he could to make it happen.  Well done all!"

Great feedback from another satisfied customer, thank you PB May 2023

Great product - good service

The standard starter was struggling to start my Race engine- the Powerlite starter has made a huge difference. The car now turns over and starts with ease- recommended for performance engines/ high compression.

We appreciate all feedback, especially kind ones, Thank you HJRM 

Excellent job Julian.

Julian who l dealt with was very very helpful, all he had to go on was a 1.6 pinto engine with type 9 gearbox in a Robin Hood S7 kit car. Emails back and forth, and went into stores again Julian was very helpful in showing me my options went for a lightweight starter motor which when fitted l felt purred better than any other l came across. I'd recommend these guys highly, and I'm a grumpy guy who isn't easily pleased

"The new alternator works perfectly and I am very grateful for your excellent service. It has brought my old Lotus back to life!"

Great feedback from another  satisfied customer  thank you

"I am very pleased with my new hi-torque starter. It spins the engine over with ease and is so much smaller and a fraction of the weight. The build quality is awesome as was dealing with the team at Powerlite. Mine was an international transaction it went flawlessly with great communication.

Thank you, guys." BK Feb 2023

Always good to receive customer feedback, especially such a kind one, thank you

I needed a modern starter motor.…

I needed a modern starter motor to fit my Standard Vanguard Phase 2 and on contacting the Company they sent me a Starter motor and also said they could refurbish my old starter motor if I wished. The Starter they sent me fitted OK but would not engage with the flywheel properly BUT when I rang them about it they were very apologetic and sent me a model that would work with the flywheel In my car (Some flywheels have different numbers of teeth). They paid for the return and the new starter arrived very quickly and worked perfectly. Excellent customer service indeed. I would fully recommend Powerlite.

Date of experience: 05 October 2022

Kind words from another satisfied customer, thank you

"Top quality, fast delivery, excellent for Mini racer."

A short and sweet review from Mats, a bit like the RAC803 Slimline Starter he purchased! This fantastic little unit is deceptively powerful, delivering maximum power with "mini"-mum effort (see what we did there!)

Wenscell had purchased a starter motor for his 1930 Model A Ford but wanted a little help with fitting instructions. Julian promptly sent him a free-of-charge brochure and in return, Wenscell sent us back a great review, along with some photos of his fully installed starter:

"The starter is now installed, connected, and working like a champ!"

Looks like you've got a great project on the go there, Wenscell!

"I am a serial car modifier, specifically MG Midgets, and most companies find car modifiers a pain in the rear axle.  Not so Powerlite!

Cut the waffle - Julian sorted me out! What super service - the guy is a credit to your company. I cannot praise him highly enough."

With the unusual setup of a 911 gearbox and a Chevy V8 engine in my Ultima, Powerlite - and more specifically Julian - sorted things out to provide exactly what was needed. 

Superb service and fantastic products. 

Well done!

"AWESOME Products - AWESOME Service"

I've bought a couple of products from Powerlite and can wholeheartedly endorse the products and level of customer service!"

Nigel purchased a RAC301 High Torque Starter Motor for his Jaguar - we love his Trustpilot feedback!

Thank you, Powerlite for solving my starter motor conundrum on my heavily modified custom 1950 VW Beetle.

From me sending the website inquiry late at night I was greeted with a helpful response from Julian the next morning and several solutions being offered to me that were frankly a gold-standard lesson in customer service. 

We decided on a contender (with the offer of return if it didn’t fit), and as promised, it arrived the next day and turned out to be the solution I needed, with the icing on the cake being no modifications were needed at all. 

I would highly recommend Powerlite to anyone.

"Whoever designed the Powerlite starter motor has my greatest admiration! 

My 71-year old Triumph now starts like it came out of the showroom yesterday. I replaced the 'long inertia' with a Powerlite RAC102 and am so pleased with it, I have been down there starting the car up this morning just for fun!"

- Edward McLaren, 14 May 2021, 11:42

"All bolted back together and started on the press of the button.  Amazing performance. Gone is the churn, churn, churn, cough, flooded, disconnect automatic choke, churn, churn, eventually fire."

Dermot had purchased a RAC302 Starter Motor for his 1968 Jaguar 3.4S but was having problems with the cable connector, so our ace sales team supplied him with a RAC900 terminal block to sort the issue. Dermot added: "It's excellent and I will be recommending your products to anyone that will listen!"

"Thank you for your excellent service and customer care. 
Your hi-torque starter motor keeps my TR3a on the road and racing in sprints and hill climbs. These motorsport events see a lot of starter use due to the multiple sort of competitive runs.
Keep up the good work."
