Schumacher Electric gets a charge out of starting things up. The company makes and sells its own brand of battery starters and chargers, including automatic, manual, wheel, and bench battery chargers. The chargers rev up cars, boats, light trucks, commercial trucks, snowmobiles, motorcycles, recreational vehicles, and farm vehicles and equipment. Schumacher Electric also makes magnetic ballasts for the lighting industry, as well as welding machines and accessories, and custom-built transformers. Former race car driver and company president and CEO Don Schumacher and other descendants of founder Albert Schumacher own the company.
