I've had the battery charger on for about 8 hours and the indicator says its
charging and not fully charged. I took it off charge to check it with a
multimeter and its showing 12.87v buuut if I hold the multi meter on it, it
slowly goes down every 5 seconds after 5 second it read 12.86v 5 seconds
later 12.85 etc etc.

I'll give it the full 12 hours it says it needs charging or until the light
says charged and then it goes into float mode for an hour or so and then try
again.

Do you think I have a bad see thats not holding a charge here ?

Cheers fella!




They all drop in voltage when come off charge. If it starts the car it's fine :-)
