Walmart battery in my Honda Civic Toad

[Harvard]

About 2.5 years ago I installed a Walmart sourced battery in our 2007 Honda Civic Toad thinking it should last a few years. Of late I have had 2 separate incidents where the battery went flat while just sitting in the driveway for 2-3 days.

My question: Can a (faulty?) car battery just go dead like this (2-3 days sitting idle) without having any apparent load?

I replaced the Walmart battery yesterday with a genuine Honda battery so time may answer my question.

Hi,

There are lots of parasitic loads on car batteries.

In an attempt to squeeze out more gas mileage charging doesn't work as well as it used to.

I think the honda battery will exhibit the same problems. Let us know, ok?
