Why Your Sealed Lead Acid Battery Won''t Hold a Charge
One common reason why a sealed lead acid battery might not hold a charge is due to a lack of maintenance. If the battery is not charged properly, or is left unused for long periods of time, it can become depleted and unable to hold a charge. Additionally, if the battery is overcharged, it can become damaged and unable to hold a charge as well. Another potential …
