Car went completely dead after I tried to start it with a recharged battery...??!!?

Question:
I own a 93 Toyota and recently the battery went dead. I recharged the battery and put it back in. When I turned the key all the lights came on. When I tried cranking the engine the car went completely dark.. I don't know where to start thinking about this problem.
Could it be a fuse? A short?

It's a bad battery. You can get enough of a charge out of a bad battery to run lights but you will not have the amps to allow the starter to crank the engine. You may want to have your alternator tested after you replace your battery to make sure it is charging the battery.

I think the battery is totally shot, it probably has a dead cell or two and just took a little charge and when you went to start the car you used up that little charge immediately, get a new battery.
