I have a nice Fluke DVOM.

Yeah, I should have actually measured my parasitic drain (mA). Winter laziness... If my issue doesn't go away, I'll dive into that.

OK, so, after 24 hours, the battery hooked up and not starting the car, I dropped 0.03V.

Started the car, and let it run for a good 15+ minutes (some idle, some held RPM, some slow revving). Shut it off and checked voltage at 12 hours and 24 hours: 0.00V drop and 0.04V drop.

This is significantly better than before.

Car struggled to start last week, since then each time I start car the display says “lower & raise window”. I have to do this each time I start & today the seat memory isn’t adjusting upon starting. When looking at the battery voltage display it seems to bounce between 11-12, sometimes it’ll hit 14, but rare.

Any ideas? This battery is almost 1 year old. original battery died at about 16months.
