<DIV>Was it an ol’ timey tent revival? Did the preacher give a good ol’
fire and damnation sermon? And the battery still didn’t see the light and
get the power of the lord and get revived?</DIV>

volt 750 cca Exide battery, probably 4-5 years old and seldom used
It is permanently mounted on my car hauler trailer... runs the winch. I have a 1
amp (I think) solar panel keeping it topped off and occasionally I switch it to
the breakaway battery. Probably been 6-8 months since I've used it and when I
did.. it died rather quickly... charging would bring it back... but again sagged
quickly. The cells were a little low on water but not below the plates... topped
them off and put it on a batteryminder maintenance charger...<SPAN
