shikano53 Posted April 30, 2011 #1 Posted April 30, 2011 Here is a picture of where I installed my Battery Bug Volt/battery monitor/thingy. When I bought my bike in November I realized that the battery was probably toast. When I installed the bug the replace battery alarm went off and both warning indicators were lit and it showed 0% of battery life left. So yesterday I installed a new Deka ETX20L, hooked everything back up and the bug immediately showed 100% battery condition, the warning indicators went off, the alarm stopped beeping and it read 14.2 volts. I installed it just to the edge of the right hand speaker since I always use my headset and it is easy to read there without moving my eyes too much. Also here are a few pics of the graphics I put on my bike. So touching wood, my bike is road ready for 2011. Chris in Red Deer, Alberta
Snaggletooth Posted April 30, 2011 #2 Posted April 30, 2011 With the DEKA AGM the Bug should show 100% for a long time. I'm going into my 3rd year with mine and it still shows 12.8 everytime I hit the switch. Never has had a tender on it, even over the winter storage. Nice looking bike by the way. Mike
KeithR Posted April 30, 2011 #3 Posted April 30, 2011 I installed mine right after installing a new Interstate battery and mine never went above 59%. Guess it wasn't a wise battery choice? Mounted above right saddle bag. Keith
