[QUOTE="New River Rat, post: 452778, member: 5593"] Checked battery number 2 at 5:30 pm and 8:30 pm last night and at 4:45 am today. Looks like maintenance mode is holding now. I am going to parallel them this a.m. and let 'em sit with the charger a while. Maybe it was what Rich said about a poor charge from the store. In the boat, the only thing on them was the Minn Kota, maybe it's a vampire, who knows? I think I'll invest in a receptacle and unplug the tm after each use and go from there. On a side note, rather than pay for large wire by the foot, be on the look out for inexpensive booster cables. I got a 12' set of 8 gauge on the cheap. [/QUOTE]
