I ended up getting an electric standup lift 4000lb capacity just off 10 year lease with 3-phase charger. It was about $1100 USD after shipping expenses. The battery charges up to 1 green light (there are 3 green lights). So it doesn't seem to hold a full charge. Is that a sign of trouble coming soon?

It's fine for the light use we put it to. I guess we'll just use it until it dies completely.

Do forklift batteries recycle for any cash? They are listed at over 2000 lbs.
