The battery is good, but the bargainshore told me it would be newer like oct. 2014 but it was in fact older july 11th holding only 12.87v batt is ok but not as much as the next one wich was 12.91v and better capacity.One of the best battery's I have found for use in solar equipment. This product is rated about 80% of what it will actually do. Very good price, very fast shipping. Would recommend it to anybody.
The next time I need an SLA 12 volt battery, I'll again order one of these. They're not too heavy and the price is good. And I know that the company's support department is good. But, sheesh, if my third one is flawed, then something is really wrong with their quality control.Bought to power a Sevylor trolling motor on my Pelican kayak. It holds a charge very well and powers my kayak for hours and hours, I think 5 hours is the longest I spent on the lake with this battery and it didn't die. Pretty light for the power supply. This is the best product of it's kind on amazon!
I used this for a Powerwheels replacement battery. I cut the top off the factory battery and removed the quick connect plug. I purchased some crimp on connectors, a 30A circuit breaker, and some 10ga wire at an auto parts store and my daughter was off riding again.
I have used only once on my fishing boat. I operated a 40 pound thrust electric trolling motor in middle speed (thrust) settings for perhaps an hour. From the terminal voltage it appeared the battery was well on its way to 1/2 discharged -= a point one should charge if they want to get hundreds of recharge cycles out of the battery. So, its low 35 AH capacity is a bit low for someone who wants to operate such a load as I had and need to do that for three or more hours. Not a surprise I had used a "flooded" lead acid battery rated at 50 AH in the past. That battery would carry me for a full day of part-time trolling. I use a gasoline engine to move the boat from point-to-point.
Battery came at 12.9. I have it hooked up to 3 100 watt windy nation panels. I'm only powering a 12 volt 2 amp tv. 3 really sunny days in a row and the battery is only at 12.8. Never wanted to take it below 80 percent. Using windy nation p30l controller and it says it's charged. All good reviews, apparently got a bad battery.Update. Not battery, charge controller. I found out I had a bad charge controller. I totally recommend this battery, and if you do experience a problem, just say something to seller and they will respond right away.I use the battery to power the 12V electronics in my ice fishing shanty (car stereo, LED lights, fans). Just the right blend of Ah and size/weight. Arrived with a fresh charge date. Had been working great ever since.
The Scooter I bought my Mother-N-Law, Which she said she would Never Use and Now Use's More That Anything, Had the batteries go dead!! She was worried that she couldn't get all her things done without the scooter. So I went on line to find New Batteries,,, The Price and Service were outstanding and if I need anything for this Scooter again, I will go back knowing I will be treated with fairness.
The OEM battery on the toy is easily accessed by removing a single screw from the carrying handle. From there, you pop off the top, remove the clips (they may be tight), and then reassemble with this replacement battery. Because the swap is so easy, I've considered buying another battery for long weekend outings. Using a somewhat simple alligator clip setup, I can hook up the depleted battery to a charger (Schumacher or BatteryTender) and put the fresh battery in the toy. Swap 'em out as needed!
Love my chrome batteries! I have been using 2 of the 35 ah in parallel to run a small off grid solar system. We run 12 v led lights, music, and a small inverter with no issues. The system is powered by a 100 watt renogy panel with a sainsonic mppt tracer 10 a controller. My batteries came charged and have had no problems thus far (8 months in service). My only complaint is the terminal size did vary between the two batteries I got (ordered at different times). I debated return it but decided it didn't matter because I was making my own interconnect cables. Judging by everyone else's experience with Chrome I bet they would have made it easy. The shipping was fast as well!
As good as they say it is, performed very well in the arid climate of Burning Man and provided quite electricity keep fans running in the heat of the day, for days without a recharge and with the suggested additional smart charger they make, charged really fast; a good investment!I needed a battery that would run the TV, DVD, VCR, two lights, fire place fan, and of course my wife's sewing machine. I tried a standard deep cycle battery but it would only last 2 to 3 hours before it needed to be charged. This battery lasted all day and night. It also charges faster than my other deep cycle batteries, can't complain about that. I also have some of my shop powered by battery, same thing happened, other batteries lasted 2 hours. This battery lasted all day running a drill press, bench grinder, dremel, boom box radio, tape player and 3 lights. This battery is well worth the money.
I ordered mine from Battery Geek. It was shipped right away via USPS. I put a volt meter on it and it was 12.79v. That is considered 100%+ (based on the Wikipedia article). It is made in china. There were no markings that I could make any sense on of when it was manufactured. I am not sure if Battery geek did a "Top off charge" before they shipped it out.First one arrived broken due to issues during the shipping (no fault of seller). Upon opening package I contacted the seller and in less than hour they had replied and arranged for shipping of a new battery. It's now working fine connected to solar panels.
