    The battery worked great the first year. I brought it in for the winter and put it on trickle charge when needed. Year 2, half way through the season it wouldn’t hold a charge if it sat more than a week. After 2 years it continued to degrade where now it won’t charge past 10.5 volts. When properly cared for, I expect a decent motorcycle battery to last 5 years when properly cared for, but at very minimum 3 years.

    Great Price for a Gel Cell, unlike Acid Bath Batteries that will leak acid out if you flip over your machine and want to use your winch this can be used in any position. One Year Warranty too and you can add a 4 year warranty for cheap.

    I purchased this for my Suzuki King Quad 700. It is the exact manufacturer spec for the size of the battery compartment. The housing is well built and the battery is a holding a charge very well, even in the cold outdoors. Would recommend for a variety of applications (ATV, riding mower, etc.).

    Good battery. Terminals are situated differently than the X16 battery that it replaced. The ones on this one can attach on the top or the front. My cable eyelets are made to bolt from the sides so I had to do a bit of twisting of the cables to make the new battery work with the cover on. I like that the top is clear so you can see the lead plates.

    Shipping was quick and the battery was well protected. I am amazed that this high quality battery can be sold for less than half of what retailers want for the equivalent thing. This is perfect for the Suzuki S-83 which requires a very strong battery. You can’t ask for better than this.

Excellent
Mighty Max Battery
Based on 3474 reviews
Arrived quickly. Even got a sticker with it.
Solid looking battery, came well packaged. Have used their battery before for my lawnmower and now looking forward to see how it lasts in my snowmobile.
I can't believe it less than 48hrs since I ordered from Walmart and it's in the machine. What more can I say except great price.
Thanks Larry
Item as described and perfect fit and arrived on time
Battery arrived in a good shape package strait to my door steps
Arrived just in time to power my generator here in the cold Maine winters. Excellent service!
Arrived quickly from WALMART.COM. Perfect size and proper placement in my generator. Installation was easy. Generator fired right up. Battery came fully charged.
New battery. Ready for cold weather!
So far these Might Max batteries are good but it’s only the first day and they were on charge for 12 hrs. I’ll have to come back and do an update at some point in time. Ordered them on Amazon and got them the next day. I was encouraged by Mighty Max to make this google review and post pictures to extend my warranty for 3 months but there is no way to post pictures 🤣🤣🤣 It’s been a few months and I was able to go back and edit, so here is a video I made, the rest of the photos I have deleted. Batteries are still going strong. Update 12-11-2025
They arrived within 2 days of ordering them packaging was really good I haven't put them in my MX350 yet I hit them with my multi meter fresh out of the box and got 12.4v on both batteries so that is good
