    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    This is what I bought from Amazon: Neptune NT-1213 12 Volt 1.3 Amp Sealed Lead Acid Hi-Capacity Rechargeable Battery I just noticed is not in stock now. It was $14.95 at the time of purchase. Mowed today and it started every time I turned the key (about 4-5 times stopping and starting). Don't...

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    Replace the battery with a new one from Amazon. Same battery mentioned in other post regarding hr217 battery. It arrived with 12.7 volts. I installed it and charging rate at mower terminals was 14.3 while mower is running. For $15 it is working well but have only used it twice.

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    I have used a fully charged battery (14.4 volts), installed it in the mower, started the mower using only the electric start, touching the Multimeter probes to the positive and negative terminals of the installed battery to the only spot I could find which is when the terminals on the mower...

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    I will try all of the above and let you know. I have two batteries-the original which is 9 years old and an ExpertPower EXP1213 which has very little difference in specs from the original (12V 1.3AH/20HR). I have both charged and removed from the mower to measure daily the voltage drop from...

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    I agree that it is for a 6-cell battery. However, I have used with success the PeleusTech 12V 14.4V 1A Float charger for AGM, GEL, SLA and FLA batteries (Amazon). Currently have another battery charging with it currently. I have used it for the past two years and get a charge of 13.4 volts when...

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    In looking at the battery, model GEP Power Products GP-2795-09 25CCA indicates it contains lead. Are you sure it is Lithium? It appears to be a Sealed Lead Acid (SLA) battery, 1.3 Amp 12 Volt Absorbent Glass Mat (AGM) with T1 terminals. It indicates it contains Sulfuric Acid.

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    It as float charger (battery maintainer)-not an automotive charger. Specifically, it is a Battery Tender Junior.

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    I don't believe the mower is charging the battery. When installing a newly-charged battery with an external charger, I get 13.4 volts. The starter will crank the engine quickly. A week or so later, the battery will show about 12.3 volts, which should be enough to start the mower. However, the...

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    It is good but I replaced it with another to test the voltage, still only 6.3 volt output. Last year when checking the battery, there was 12.4 volts output at the battery terminals with the engine running-now about half that amount being produced.

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    Is there a way to test the stator to see if it is putting out 12+ volts?

    Honda model HRR2169VLA not charging battery

    My multimeter indicates while the mower is running, I am only getting 6.2 volts to the battery-not enough to charge the battery. I last fall replaced the starter assembly since it was failing to start the mower. Starter now works fine and if I remotely charge the battery, the battery fully...
