A drop from 13 to 12.6 is normal on most vehicles. What would not be normal is for it to drop much more. (age of battery is also a variable in that). My van parked for a couple days will drop to 12.6 overnight and then down to about 12.3 after 3 days and 12.1 after 5 days. My aux1 battery (a group 27 deep cycle) drops at a slower rate and has a similar load on it. jimt On 11/2/05 9:01 AM, "Roger Sisler" <rogersisler2000@YAHOO.COM> wrote: > Thanks again Tim.
