Hi John,

Thanks for the voltage info. Dave Carpenter got back with me and =
suggested I follow the recommended procedure for "Restoring a Low Charge =
Capacity". I tried that and it seems to have worked. Time will tell.

Thanks. I'll keep your data for future reference.

Restoring a Low Charge Capacity
In some cases, a battery may terminate its Charging mode far too early =
and
therefore only accept a small portion of its normal capacity. This is =
more
likely to occur if the tuner has not been used for several months or if =
the
battery has been left in a low charge state too often. To remedy this
problem, charge the battery while monitoring the Charging light (the red
light closest to the front panel) to make sure it stays lit for at least =
90
minutes. If the Complete light comes on early, force the battery to take =
an
additional charge by removing and reinserting the charger plug. Repeat =
this
procedure until the Charge light has been lit for a total of at least 90
minutes. Stop charging if at any time the Charging light does not stop
blinking. This procedure applies only to a battery that will not charge =
to
its full capacity. In the regular charging routine, recommend above, in
which the battery is charged after several hours of use, the Charging =
light
may be lit less than 90 minutes simply because less than 90 minutes of
charging is needed to bring it to a full charge.


  13.01 VDC, on load. This is turning on about 3 hours after the charge. =
