Maybe a bad apple in the bunch
This one may be a defective battery because I just recently replaced the battery for my truck as well as this one for my CR-V. My trucks battery was a definate improvement and no issues. This one for my CR-V is definately lacking power and the engine turned over quickly after the was drive a few miles. It can't be not fully charged because we drove an hour ride a few days after install which should adequately charge any new battery that needs a complete charge. I've rebuilt repair and restored cars for many years so I know new batteries sometimes need a good drive to get that innitial full charge but this battery just seems to lack hold a good strong charge. Like I said I just replaced my truck with an Autocraft Gold and it starts better than ever. As for anyone who says that the batteries are heavy, they should be having someone else install them because, BATTERIES ARE MADE OUT OF LEAD!!! They are supposed to be heavy and if you think they are too heavy you should not be working on your car! I am going to return the battery for my CR-V and see if maybe it was defective. I know for a fact the charging system is good so lack of power may just be a bad apple.
