Has anyone tried this battery out yet? I purchased the 15ah and have not been able to get it to put out anything over 11.7V even after a full charge – says it should give off 12.6V – is this expected?

let me know your thoughts on this battery in comparison to others
I believe the battery need to go through a few cycles before it shows full a charge / proper voltage. Ive seen this issue reported on other forums and that seems to be the fix. Also a proper lithium charger is needed if your not using one.

Yep- Lithium chargers are higher voltage than SLA. Also, check what voltage your charger is declaring as “full” Should be over 13V for sure. Measure voltage with charger attached to battery and full charge light on.
Thanks! yes I purchased a charger from their website so i would assume thats for the lithium….

when i turn on my helix 7 with the battery at 100% charged AND plugged in to the charger it reads 12.5V (100% battery on helix) but when I unplug it from the charger and am just running it off the 100% battery the voltage drops to 11.7 (helix reads 40% battery).
Ill give it a few charge cycles and report back.
The Helix battery indicator won’t be accurate with a Norsk battery. You won’t have any issues using a Helix 7 all day even at max screen brightness.
Do you guys even use your Helix battery indicator then, or is it useless as long as you see you have a higher charge in the Norsk battery? Having similar situation as IceKing8, my battery indicator is usually in the teens after about 6 hrs, but the battery reads 85-95%.
