Why am I so gullible or trusting... :(

Put battery in car, click click. Went to battery with meter and 10v. Put charger on and it flies to over 13v but drops as soon as charge is taken off.

C*nt!

I've asked for refund and got the "oh that's funny as was fine in my car 3 days ago and all that bollox"

I picked it up from his house.

Save you're money, wait for next week. then get get 750cca or larger?

I've got a v6, & l've got a 750 cca, well l did, changed the battery today put the 750 cca on the charger. I got a 540 cca last year for $20.00 from the wreckers, that is for the other vt. Just so l can drive it, when l have to move it, instead of trying to push it.
Put the 540 cca in my vt, while the 750 cca is on the charger.

The 540 cca usually lives on the smart charger. So, it was fully charged when it went into my vt.
