Most Common Questions
Quick answers
Does my battery come fully charged?
Yes. It ships pre-filled and pre-charged. Install it and you’re ready to ride.
Should I charge the battery in the off-season?
Yes. Storage is the #1 time batteries get weakened. Keep it maintained with the BRS Super Charger.
What voltage should a fully charged battery read?
A fully charged 12V AGM battery is usually 12.7V or higher at rest.
Can this battery be mounted on its side?
Yes. AGM batteries can be mounted in most positions — just not upside down.

Charging & Storage
Should I charge my ATV / UTV battery in the off-season?
Yes. When a battery sits for weeks or months, it can slowly drain and lose strength.
Use the BRS Super Charger (BRS612) to keep it fully charged during storage.
Should I charge my battery after plowing, winching, or short rides?
Yes. Many powersports charging systems can’t fully recharge the battery after heavy accessory use or short trips.
After you’re done, connect the BRS Super Charger to bring it back to full.
Can I leave a maintainer connected all winter?
Yes. That’s the easiest way to prevent a dead battery in spring.
We recommend the BRS Super Charger (BRS612).
Should I start my motorcycle / snowmobile during the off-season to “charge the battery”?
Usually, no. Starting the unit uses power, and idling often does not recharge the battery enough to replace what was used.
Instead, keep the battery maintained with the BRS Super Charger.
If the battery gets drained very low, is it ruined?
A very low battery can be weakened and some chargers may not recognize it right away.
Best prevention is keeping it charged during storage with the BRS Super Charger.
Can I use a NOCO jump starter on this battery?
Yes. This is a 12V lead-acid (AGM) battery. A quality 12V jump starter should work.
If you need one, see our options here: Booster Packs (Jump Starters).
What voltage should a fully charged battery read?
As a general rule, a fully charged 12V AGM battery will read 12.7V or higher at rest.
Tip: for the best reading, let the battery rest for 1–2 hours after charging.
Do I need a special charger because this is AGM?
Use a smart charger/maintainer that supports 12V lead-acid/AGM charging.
We recommend the BRS Super Charger (BRS612).
Fitment & Installation
How do I find out what battery fits my unit?
Match the numbers on your original battery. That’s the fastest and safest method.
If you want us to confirm it, call 705-855-0473 or message us here: https://brsbattery.com/pages/contact-us.
What position can my AGM battery be mounted in?
These sealed AGM batteries can be mounted in most positions, including on their side.
Exception: do not install the battery upside down.
The product photo shows the posts reversed. Am I missing something?
Some batteries use the same case size but have different post layouts for different machines.
Match the numbers and post layout from your original battery. If you’d like help, call 705-855-0473.
I received a battery but don’t see the screws or nut block. Were they left out?
We install the block and screw sets and verify torque before shipment.
If anything looks off, contact support: https://brsbattery.com/pages/contact-us.
What size screws come with this battery?
The proper size screws are M6 × 12mm.
This has a different post than my OEM Harley battery. Do I need an adapter?
The battery will connect to your cables. You will need to remove and turn the nut on its side and insert it back into the post.
This converts it into a side-post connection similar to the OEM Harley-Davidson setup.

Troubleshooting
What can cause a new battery to fail shortly after installation?
If a new battery doesn’t perform properly, it is often caused by something else on the machine.
- A weak charging/starting system
- An electrical short causing high power draw
- Dirty terminals or loose connections
- A parasitic drain (power draw when the machine is off)
- The battery size/capacity is not enough for the machine’s electrical needs
I didn’t ride over the winter and now the battery is dead. Is that normal?
It can happen. Many machines have small power draws even when off (clocks, memory, accessories).
For storage, use a smart maintainer like the BRS Super Charger so the battery stays ready.
How do I tell the age of this battery?
There is a date code stamped into the top of the battery and/or a sticker on the side with the date code.
Is there a cross reference guide available?
We have listings on our site. If you can’t find your make/model, contact us and we’ll help you match the correct battery.
