Has anyone bought or heard anything about Scorpion Stinger batteries my battery just kee rapped the bed on me. Strange last time I took it for a ride it started right up and no lights for the entire ride. I put the Battery Tender on it for a couple of hours and the light was still red when I went to check on it and the odometer was faintly flashing. Thanks for bearing with me.

check the battery connections first and ground cables on your bike,measure the voltage on the battery with and without the engine running..if it's below 12V without the engine running the battery is weak,with the engine running it should be between 13.5 and 14v, if you rev the engine the voltage goes up

Thanks for the reply ThunderDemon. Yeah I checked my battery connections I would have to jump it to start it like I said with the Battery Tender on it for a couple hours you could just barely make out some faint numbers on the odometer. A cell probably shorted out om the battery.

Looks like a copy of Battery Tender

I have been using this set since 2015 and works great:

If you're like me, I always keep my alarm on. It drains on the battery so I always keep a tender on it. My last battery actually lasted 9 years on a different bike. The less charges and drain down cycles the better. When it runs down so low, a tender won't charge it in a few hours. It will need a full charge and then daily trickeling or replacement.

Gotta AGM ebay battery that's been going strong for over 2 yrs. now. Around the $40 mark shipped.

I have a 2005 VRSCSE. Had terrible luck with the HD batteries. Cheap as it may sound...I got 7 years out of my first WalMart battery (EverStart). Had to replace it this year...ES-TX14. $79.00
