  4. jay cummings

    Very happy. It was very inexpensive. But performs great! I would highly recommend it.

  5. Cookie

    Polarities were on the opposite of the original Polaris battery. Had to extend the positive lead. Other than that it was a great price for for a replacement battery. Too soon to tell longevity of it.

  31. Chuck E Bee

    Battery seems like a wise purchase but only time will tell. Installed and quad started right up first try. Half the price of the Uwasa battery I’m replacing which only lasted 3 years and it was continually on a trickle charger. Need less to say I didn’t replace it with anothe Uwasa.

  62. Donald Quinton

    It was a tad small for the battery box , I ordered for the specific machine. I suppose it is because it was a Gel battery is why it was smaller than the original.

  63. Richard G. Green

    Fit????wheeler fired right up I’d but another one

  64. tifini ferrara

    Takes a charge well. We used it on a quad that has not been used in years. Started it up with no hesitation. Keeps a strong charge, even when we leave the lights on. Would recommend. 5 stars

  65. Bradley T

    Great ATV battery. No issues, great power on startup. Smaller then the 10AH it replaced in an older Polaris and about 1lb lighter which is cool. Held a charge all winter without a maintainer and still had 12.8 in it.

  66. Micro Manager

    The Mighty Max Battery YTX14AH arrived promptly and well packaged. Installation was easy and the battery is working fine.

    Did not like the way with the little screws to attach cable to the battery screws was too short to make up for the thickness of the battery cables

  80. Tammy Haynes

    The price was reasonable and they arrived very quickly!

  81. DL

    This battery was installed in my 2008 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. The size is perfect and it started the quad every time this winter, even after sitting for weeks at a time. I’d say a great replacement and a much better price than local auto parts stores and even better priced than battery specific stores.

  82. Ryan Dean

    Works like it should I just don’t like the terminals to be honest, they are not solid lead rather a steel strap zinc coated I believe and it bends rather easy when tightening cables down, I would not buy again because of this. I like the caltric brand batteries when shopping in this price range.

    i liked that it has top or front bolt up. worked fine so far,1 month

  91. LB

    I have only used it once; however, it came fully charged, and ready to go. no leaks, and a great condition. As a bonus the battery was just a little shorter which made it much easier to install in the four wheeling. I’m guessing the battery is standard height. Please note this review is a little premature in that I have not used the battery all that much.

  120. Liz

    Exactly as described. Arrived sooner than expected via postal service. Packed well. Prefect fit for my 1999 Polaris Magnum 500. For those that claim terminals are on wrong sides, check carefully before ordering as Mighty Max offers batteries in different configurations. Quad starts much faster than with old battery. Time will tell how long it lasts. For the price, I will be happy with 2 years. I do keep a tender on my batteries so that should help.

  121. Janice K Robert

    Fit in, and started right up!!!!

  122. Joe Drake

    This company really takes care of their customers. I had a mishap with size and they totally resolved my problem over and above my expectations.Thanks you Mighty Max!.

  123. Dennis U.

    Straight out of the box I put it in my 4 wheeler that had set 4 or 5 years, I had to crank it over and over numerous times before I got it started. The battery never slowed down a bit, just cranking and cranking.

  124. shovelhead98

    So far, this battery is working great. Arrived quickly, and well packed. Time will tell if it’s gonna last a few years or not. For the price, if we get 2 years out of it I’ll be more than happy

  184. Steve

    The price of this battery seem too good to be true but he arrived and I have been using it for three weeks and it’s working perfectly. The only problem I have with these types of batteries is that in tight quarters it’s very difficult to screw into the nut while it’s floating around inside the space while you’re also trying to hold the wires. I just don’t understand why they don’t thread the connection so that you don’t need a nut

    This battery is awesome. It fit perfectly, is completely sealed (it came shipped on its side in a box, fully charged), and has plenty of cranking power. I’ve only had it for a couple months, so I don’t know how long it’ll last, but so far, I’m impressed and very pleased. Also, I can’t believe how fast it got here (only took 3 days).

  201. Salli

    Great product for a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend this product.

    Very good product but little problem with shipping.

  203. Dan

    So far so good! Fits my 2004.5 Sportsman perfectly, cranks much better than the old battery. It is a AGM as stated, so no checking the levels or spilling corrosive acid. One month so far on the battery, no complaints time will tell how it holds up.

    Fast delivery by mail because sealed. Fit right. Good cranking. Too new to rate longevity.

  217. KKapp

    I love the fact that this is a sealed battery. No pouring the electrolyte into the battery and discarding the waste container. This bolted right in to my Polaris 500HO and fired up immediately. Proof will be in how long it lasts, but my initial reaction is that I’m very happy with this product.

    Works good. My original battery has been dead for five years. I placed the Mighty Max battery in and the electric start fired up my 2004 Polaris 500HO right away. All electrical functions are 100%. Needs a little work on the engineering side. Could barely get the cable to reach the posts. Original battery had shorter posts and was a bit shorter overall. No complaints otherwise. Delivered when promised and was even a couple of bucks cheaper than the battery that Walmart carries. Time will tell, of course.

    Received damaged. Positive terminal was crushed. the battery was otherwise undamaged. This had to have happened at the factory before being placed in its card board box as none of the packaging was damaged at all. I was still able to use the battery so I’m giving it 4 stars

Mighty max brings the battery backup back.
Arrived well packed in unopened sturdy box. Was replacement for identical Mighty Max battery I ordered 2 years ago. Taking 1 star off because didn’t include the needed terminal clips - was able to use the old battery’s clips
Same model fits in each of our four wheelers great product
Replacement for my Murray MT100 riding lawnmower. Murray does not make replacement batteries and you are on your own if the battery goes bad. Bought Murray MT100 in 2023, battery went bad in 1 year and all other Murray replacement batteries are LARGER so it won't fit.This Mighty Max Battery fit the MT100 fine and it starts it perfectly too.
Direct replacement for generac portable electric start generator. Works great.
Received really quick. Boxed well and fit great. Worked like a charm! I would definitely recommend this battery.
As an athletic trainer I rely on our water units every day to provide the water to our athletes. We have over 900 student athletes enrolled, and these units get used daily, so it is imperative these batteries are reliable. On a side note, I also use these batteries on my fishing kayak to power my fish finder. I can use my fish finder for about 20 hours before it turns off. These batteries are great! Highly recommend. I have not had any issues so I haven't spoken to customer service yet, but if they are as good as these batteries have been, I think I am in good hands.
Needed a replacement battery and the manufacturer wanted $50 whereas you only required $20. Made it worth it!
satisfy with price and easy installation.
Arrived in great condition comes with the bolts to attach the wire over all very satisfied
