Default Is it a bad battery? thanks

95 blazer. lost all of the power several times this month. The battery was charged and tested and it's good. alternator is good too. last time, I chargered the battery at schucks and they test it again, good. I take it to my house and lift it on the ground(do not set it in the truck), when I use it to start the truck 2 days later, I found it lost some power and cannot start the truck. take it to the store and they say it can be charged once again and test it ----good. so they refused to change it for me(my battery is a 2 months old one). Help, it's the battery is bad or not? the schucks said that the battery can lost much power in 1 day when it was lift on the ground, is true? I have no idea of that. Sorry for saying so much. Thanks.

NO, you got other problems there, I had a battery sitting ont he floor of my garage for 4 months and then wanted to use it again, picked it up, put it in the truck and it turned the truck right over, no charging it or anything. I'd start looking around at other wiring to see if there is a problem.

IF you just put the battery in after it was charge two days ago and it didnt have enough power to start the blazer. Then you went back to the place and it needed to be charge again then it is a bad battery. It should stay at full charge for longer then two days.
