Battery drain
Got a new walmart MAXX24dc a year ago. It was free under warranty, it's the one in the trailer when I bought it.
It was only 1 year old. Now the replacement is about a year old and doesn't seem right.
It stays plugged in all the time at home, and we don't boondock at all. I do occasionally unplug it and let it run down to about 12.2 volts, then re-plug.
Now it seems after weeks of being plugged in, if I unplug it's down to 12.2 volts the next morning, with just normal parasitic drain.
I don't have a hygrometer. I have cleaned battery terminals and recharged, no change.
This doesn't seem right to me. How about you?
Thanks in advance for the advice.
