Default Battery Problems

Yet again another flat battery this morning. AA thought if I bought a mains chargerand did so for 12 hours that would do the trick. Is there anyway to know how well charged the battery is ? Has anyone else had any battery problems because if not I might go back to the dealer .

Gus, i dont know if this is of any interest to you but i had
the bonnet up on the S this afternoon and found that the
earth lead on my battery terminal was loose. You could
just lift it off !! may be worth checking your terminals.

I had a total battery failure, it was replaced under warranty.
Do a search it's well documented (the AA damaged my car )

Replaced at 1 &1/2 years old, AA came out, said it was knackered, gave me the report, Honda replaced.

No troubles in the two years since.
