Review on Chrome Battery 12B-BS Maintenance Free Replacement Battery For Motorcycle And Scooter: 12 Volts, 1 Amps, 10Ah, Nut And Bolt (T3) Terminal by Chad Judex

**** DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ****

There's nothing more aggravating than getting ready to go for a ride and hearing the starter just click. I've had this battery only a few months and like MANY MANY MANY other reviewers state it stopped charging.I crank the bike fairly often and keep a maintainer on it if I'm not going to fire it up for a week or so. There's no reason this battery should be dead. I went ahead and pulled the battery completely out of the bike and I used a slow charger to fully charge the battery. Within a few hours after removing the charger the battery voltage has fallen to 11 volts while sitting on the table, so you can't blame the discharge on parasitic drain from something with the motorcycle.I tried using the warranty lookup and of-course it can't find my registration. I clearly remember going to the warranty website and registering. Even if I could get it warrantied I would have to pay $12-15 to ship this $40 crap battery back and hope I didn't get another pile of crap battery.I should have known better and returned it to Walmart after I got it. The terminals are made of cheap metal. The terminal nuts fall out of the terminals because they have no means of retaining them.
