Weize YTX14 BS ATV Battery High Performance - Maintenance Free - Sealed AGM YTX14-BS Motorcycle Battery compatible with Honda Suzuki Kawasaki Yamaha scooter snowmobile

IF YOU WANT A BATTERY THAT WILL CRANK YOUR ATV WITH NO TROUBLE...THIS ONE IS FOR YOU. MORE THEN ENOUGH POWER AND NO WORRIES OF IT FAILING IMMEDIATELY. JUST MEASURE WHERE YOU ARE INSTALLING IT...IT'S A BIG ONE AND HEAVY.

The battery was delivered packaged very well. The quality of the battery appears to be excellent. I charged the battery before installing it in my ATV and it worked perfectly once installed. The battery fit perfectly into the compartment, so the size was true to the item description. YTX-14-BS. It was an excellent value compared to other options from parts stores at a 50% savings over them.

Like many, many other Pacifica owners I was getting the dreaded "Start/Stop System Requires Service" notification on my wife's 2018 van. This went on for several months and I didn't really think much of it. I did do some reading about the system however; it looked very confusing--so I left it alone. We don't really like the feature anyway (for those who don't know--and yet still care to know--this is the system that allows the car to turn off at stop lights and such and then restart as soon as the driver's foot lifts off the brake pedal. It's supposed to save $ on gas). Then, my wife called me from Costco to tell me that her car won't start. She called me back about 10 minutes later and said the car had now started and that a bunch of warning lights had popped up on her dash. We now had several warning lights up on the dash: the symbol for the start/stop system (which was nothing new...this one had been on for weeks) and now the check engine light was on. Correlation is not causation but I assumed that the start/stop system had something to do with this. Great. Now I was going to have to take the thing back to the dealership and offer to trade them my first born son in exchange for making this right. First, however, I decided to do some sleuthing. Digging in to my bag of tricks, I busted out my multi-meter and tested the battery. Low and behold, it read 12.5 volts--indicating the battery was JUST hangin' on. I tested it again a bit later and it was lower, reading 12.3, then 12.2. I figured I was probably on to something. Here's the (tricky) thing: these dang machines have TWO batteries! One big primary battery (the crank battery) and one small auxiliary battery (which is used by the start/stop system. You know this already because you are shopping for a small auxiliary battery and reading this review). The things is, you can't really check the voltage of just one when they are both in the vehicle and connected in parallel. Both batteries will read the same voltage. So, I knew that one of the batteries was dead but didn't know which one. I took a chance and ordered this battery, at the time hoping I wouldn't have to also fork out $200 on a new primary (crank) battery. Fun story: I had to buy a new crank battery, too. So, the new battery arrived on Sunday (yesterday) and I started disassembling the old batteries out of the van. Remember when removing a battery used to just be a strap over the battery and disconnected the negative and then positive terminals? Ha! No more! It took me darn near 45 minutes to get the two batteries out (for the record you need a 13mm and 10mm socket). The small battery has to come out first; the crank battery does not have room to come out unless you pull the auxiliary first. I got the auxiliary out and inspected it to the new replacement: they looked very similar in size and the labels indicated very similar properties in terms of capacity and such. The one big difference--and this was noted by another reviewer to my benefit--the old battery had posts mounted to each of the positive and negative terminals and the new battery had bolts that were supposed to connect through the terminal and then into a square receiving bolt. The problem was, the bolts that came with the new battery are rather short and--at first glance--don't appear like they will work. I'm getting ahead of myself in this story but when I went to put the new battery in I was able to make these bolts/nuts fit by cutting a rubber band in half, folding the rubber band over itself to about 3/8" height, and then squeeze the square receiving nut into the battery terminal with the battery under it. This pushed the receiving nut up and tight against the underside of the terminal and made it so that when I pushed the bolt down through the terminal the threads would catch. Saved me from buying longer bolts (a savings of probably 50 cents--still, it worked!) Now that I had the auxiliary battery out and it looked like it would work, I decided to pull the main battery and take it to an auto parts retailer to have them check it. The first one I drove to closed literally as I pulled in (because of course it did). The second, an Autozone, checked the battery for me: they measured it at 75% cranking power while at full charge and labelled it "dead." Gone are the days of a battery slowing dying; cars now are entirely electronically controlled. My suspicion is that if the car reads a certain level of battery it just stops working. There is no slow turning of the starter like on older vehicles. The Pacifica seems to be especially hard on batteries and so won't take anything but the battery's very best. Once performance falls below a certain point it is "dead" for all intensive purposes. $203 later, I had a new battery with a 36 month warranty. I took the new battery home, installed the big/crank battery first, then the auxiliary battery (then removed them both again because I had put the crank battery in backward). I reversed the multitude of cable connections to the battery exactly as they were before and...it worked! After a few miles of the car telling me the start/stop system was unavailable because the battery was charging, it became available and I had the joy of being able to turn up my music with the windows down so that everyone around me could listen to what I was listening to without the annoyance of the engine idling. I bet I looked PRETTY cool in my mini-van. With functioning start/stop. Long story short, this battery worked for what I bought it for. I have no idea how long it will last but--considering all other options for this battery are well over $100--even if I have to replace it twice, or even three times, as often, I still won't be losing much by giving it a try. I'll update this review if it fails ridiculously fast.

good fit

Pros: Ready to Rock: The battery arrived fully charged and passed a voltage check right out of the box. I didn't have to mess with a trickle charger before the first ride. Perfect Fit: Installation was a breeze. It dropped right into the battery tray on the WR with no clearance issues or terminal drama. Strong Starts: It has plenty of cranking power. My 450 fires right up instantly now, even after sitting for a few days. Maintenance Free: Love the sealed AGM design—no worrying about acid leaks or checking fluid levels after a rough day on the trails. For the price, you can't beat the performance. If you need a reliable YTZ7S replacement that actually works as it should, this is a winner.

This battery is a great buy, it charges fast, its pretty efficient and is very light weight. When i pulled it out of the box i was shocked that the battery was so light, it only weighs a couple pounds. I used it to make a mini solar generator for charging phones, running small lights and a mini fan. I found this battery to be overkill for those tasks, it ended up being a lot more capable than I expected. I have run the battery down hundreds of times and it still holds a charge like it was brand new. This is one of those happy surprises a fair price for a good product that lasts, i would buy more stuff from this brand.

This battery was a drop in, perfect fit replacement for the stock one in my 2024 Kawasaki KLX300. Came packaged well and with a full charge. Replacement was quick and easy and the bike starts up with lots of power. Only time will tell now, but definitely recommended. The extra leads at the battery posts are for an accessory panel powering a USB charger, an Android Auto Head Unit, and an auxiliary waterproof plug extension so that I can connect a trickle charger to it without removing the side cover. Ride on y'all

This battery fit perfectly in my 2021 Chrysler Pacifica to replace the stop/start battery. Been in a few months and the error on the dash board is still clear. Saved me over $200 from buying one at the dealership.

It is for motorcycle. I hope it will last long.

Size was too small for our atv....cannot send back either.

My wife Pacifica auto start stop was not working, removed old battery installed this battery and working like a charm !! 100% recommend this battery if you Pacifica is having same issue. Thanks to the guy with previous review who had same issue with Pacifica.

Tres bken

better than original battery for drz400sm
