Please help diagnose starting issue

[troubadours]

Hello,

My Raven has a starting issue that can only be fixed if I trickle charge the starter battery.  The strange thing is that after doing that it will run for a day or so and then the starter battery needs charging again.  When I put the starter battery on the trickle charger it charges up quickly.

It is the original starter battery.  If you think I need to replace this does anyone have a good link to the right replacement starter battery?

If you think it could be something else, please advise what I should check.

Thanks so much!
Karen

Ps... while you are at it...I would like a good link for the 48v replacement batteries too, please.

If it is the original battery, it is probably failing. I've used several battery suppliers in the past. Do a search on the following: Sigmas Tech, Apex and First Power. You will need a 12v 9ah for the starter and 12v 20ah for the (4) batteries in the pack.

Attached are the battery specification for the OEM First Power batteries.

Watch out for the apex starter battery as sometimes they would not fit in the bracket and would need modified.
