Here is a question for those on the list that know about the vagaries of why batteries drain down to 10.2 volts in about 10 days time. This 12v, 24AH, sealed lead acid battery was new in Oct 03. It has held a charge(except when I leave a switch on) until now. I can not find any closed circuits except for the little electronic compass that draws little. Thanks for any help!
