- Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS battery replacement
The original battery, made in the far east, does not seem to be available at the time of writing, yet many are fitted to petrol generators, lawnmowers and other such equipment, normally with an electric start. Now it seems a shame that these very useful devices are set for the scrapyard, just because of lack of battery, you would have thought this kind of service part would be supplied by the manufacturers, but I suppose its commercially more sense for you to go out and buy another piece of kit from them rather than keep your original item going, yes you would be right, there is a pattern here, one we would like to reverse.
Now we can supply a battery the correct size to replace the Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS, just with different fittings, so we supply terminal adapters to change them over, just crimp them on, a job that could be done with a pair of pliers if not a crimping tool.
Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS battery Maintenance tips:
Outdoor equipment, such as lawnmowers and generator batteries, often dies during the winter when your lawn is neglected and your battery is left outside in the cold shed for extended periods. If you want to extend the life of your battery, a little care goes a long way, so we strongly recommend following our advice. Charge your Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS battery until it is completely charged before using it for the first time. Also, make sure to fully charge your device after every use and before storing it; many users overlook this step, and it's where the most damage is often done. If you aren't going to use it for a while, a four or five-week charge will help extend its life.
Environmentally friendly AGM batteries
This Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS replacement battery is most commonly found in garden tools such as lawnmowers, and if you are using a lawnmower, one could assume you are at least slightly invested in the earth and would like to recycle where possible. This battery is a sealed lead AGM type, made of lead, and, luckily, lead is very recyclable. So please direct your old battery and this battery when it has fulfilled its purpose to your local centre for recycling.
Comes with connectors:
We now supply this battery with a pair of female spade connectors. This is because on some installations, you will have an upright or flag ring-type terminal, and the battery for it is no longer available. You can remove them and add these F2 6.35mm ones for connection to the battery instead, simply crimped on. You should be able to do this with a pair of pliers if you do not have a crimping tool.
Connector Update - we are now supplying the Powersonic 6-QF-5-FS battery compatible replacement, with two short bespoke cables, terminated with a spade connection at one end. plus at the other a ring, plus a nut and bolt so it can connect to the existing loop on your generator. Plus two lengths of shrink tube to cover the join. The nut and bolt are 8mm spanners, the shrink tube is activated by heat, a heat gun, a hot hairdryer, a soldering iron, or even a lighter. Set it so everyone has one of these at home.
