Don't buy this battery...,

This review is from: Peg Perego Battery 12 Volt (Drop Ship Pack) (Toy)
My son has the John Deere Power Pull Tractor which uses this battery. Due to the numerous complaints about the battery, and because the battery that came with the tractor only lasts about 30 minutes before needing a recharge, I decided to take a different route.I bought a 12 volt battery intended for lawn tractors/snow mobiles/etc. It will cost a heck of a lot less than Peg Perego's battery. I then spliced the wires from the tractor, the red one is positive, obviously, and connected them to the battery. I then used a piece of wire to hold the new battery down. It works perfectly and literally runs an entire day before needing a recharge. And of course I use a car battery charger to charge it. So, you'll save money and you kids will get MUCH more enjoyment!

This review is from: Peg Perego Battery 12 Volt (Drop Ship Pack) (Toy)
With further research while removing the blue plastic cap, I discovered this is a simple SLA (sealed lead acid) battery.
All you have to do is google "SLA battery" and look for 12volt 12Ah (amp hour). They range from 25 to 38 dollars, with several manufactures. (mostly Chinese) Anyway, all you have to do is cut one side of the blue cap band, remove the cap and unplug the harness. Plug the harness into the new battery, add a set of "Battery Tender" terminals, duct tape the blue cap back on, and BINGO. These are the same batteries sold for electric scooters and wheelchairs. New battery 1/2 the cost. Only now you have a "battery tender" connection to plug in and recharge the battery with a proper charger instead of that cheap POS Peg Perego sells. Amazon sells the Genesis (Yuasa)12np 12ah battery that fits properly with no modifications to the toy. [...] Amazon also sells the "Battery Tender" [...] The nice thing about the Battery Tender is it comes with an extra set of cables, and you can buy spare sets. I have spare sets permanently installed on my boat, tractor, and two motorcycles. You can use the one Battery tender to charge all of them. It's a trickle charger too, so you can leave the battery on the charger indefinitely without damaging the battery or the charger. I really think the main problem most everyone is complaining about is the cheap junk A/C type adapter/charger that comes with the toy. 12np 12ah Battery Brands are: Genesis (Yuasa) BB Leoch Toyo Century and about a half dozen others.

Buyer Beware,

This review is from: Peg Perego Battery 12 Volt (Drop Ship Pack) (Toy)
Battery is way overpriced. Contact Battery Store near you! I did and found this same exact battery type(2-6volt Batteries) for much less. While there they told me I could use a low amp 12v Deep Cycle battery instead. It did take some time wiring (FUSED LINK IS A MUST) but is well worth it. Lasts all day and you can charge it at a 2 amp "trickle charge" with a "amp selectable" car battery charger. All told it cost me less than $60 for everything. It now longer just "Takes Up Space".
