[QUOTE="cain072567, post: 1301331, member: 24985"] something is draining it as you can tell, get a simple digital amp probe and set it on dc volts, most good ones have a setting you can set for peak hold. Leave on and leave it and check every few hours, then expand time length if your not getting anything. Do truck positive main cable from dealer. Make sure you unplug all aftermarket items. If after a few days you still have no voltage amp draw, you know its not factory and hook up your aftermarket stuff one item at a time. You can isolate the problem this way. Also the meters come in various types and sizes but most do the samething. Anything electronic that holds memory has battery drain or an internal battery, for when vehicle power is not on, you get the idea. Process of isolating untill your rule out things. Once a bttery is fully drained it is damaged to some degree. Hope that helps, and if i dont use my truck for extended periods, which i do, like weeks or months, i always hook up very low battery tenders to keep batteries in good working order. I do this with my lawn mowers, generators, and UTV’s. [/QUOTE]
