Hi,I ordered a kit from EBC that included a 13amp downtube battery however the battery I received was marked 11amps? I contacted the company and The guy said he was very sorry and would send out a replacement battery straight away,I received it today and it has no sticker on it to say what it is? Does anyone know of an easy way to check if it's 11 or 13amp? They both weigh the same according to my bathroom scales (not the most accurate I know) I expected the 13amp to be heavier?

As I said in another thread, the only way to confirm is to do a discharge test.

If you are willing to send it to me/recover I can test it.

Hi,I ordered a kit from EBC that included a 13amp downtube battery however the battery I received was marked 11amps? I contacted the company and they replied straight away saying that I must have received one of the batteries that they use for testing the bikes? I thought that was strange cause it looks brand new and not something thats been on and off a number of bikes. The guy said he was very sorry and would send out a replacement battery straight away,I received it today and it has no sticker on it to say what it is? Does anyone know of an easy way to check if it's 11 or 13amp? They both weigh the same according to my bathroom scales (not the most accurate I know) I expected the 13amp to be heavier, am beginning to wonder if the batteries are all 11amp and they forgot to remove the sticker from the first one?
Are they letting you keep the original one?

does the new battery have a different model no than the 11ah one?
I agree the lack of a sticker is a bit disconcerting.
