Re: Battery Life
I'm not worried about my battery. I've got an analogue voltmeter (not the idiot gauge) that I use to monitor performance of the battery. My point is that many batteries do not go beyond its warranty life, normally between 72-96 months. I work part time in an auto parts store and we do a lot of business selling batteries which don't last its cycle life. I believe the main cause is frequent short drives which don't allow the batteries to get fully charge. By the way I worked with propulsion lead-acid batteries while I was in the submarine force. Each cell weighed 2000 lbs. and we have 250 cells. However, we do proper maintenance (test discharge, equalizer charge, etc.)on them to last its life cycle
