I replaced the battery on my Craftsman LT1000 mower and it worked just fine, but a week later the battery is dead. I turn the key to crank and it just clicks. What could be draining the battery so quickly?

On our tools that run off of battery power, we disconnect the battery after each use. It prevents this from happening as well as preventing possible conrousion damage to the tool.

One advice that's good is to make sure the battery terminals are clean from residue - Corroded terminals can be messing up your battery. Also make sure that your battery does not require maintenance, such as checking water levels.
on the starter the cable has a nut then cable then another nut, that inner nut has a tendency to loosen, that will cause charging and starting problems
