I have a Deep cycle battery that will charge up BUT as soon as I take it off the charger it IMEDIATELY starts loosing voltage & without being connected to anything ! After charging it reads 12.4v then it begins to drop slowly. Shoot I only had the battery for approx.8-9 mos & I have no Idea what is causing this. Anyone have a clue? I don`t

If it’s lead acid check the water level, not that it matters because it’s already toast.

Sounds like a dead cell or two. Take it back where you bought it, should have some type of warranty.

12.4 is not fully charged. Take it back where you bought it.

Think you guys are confused, a 12v lead acid battery is full at 12.3v and up. But if it’s dropping, it’s obviously bad.
A lithium is full at 13.6v.
I had to look this one up, an agm fully charged is 12.85v.

I had to look this one up, an agm fully charged is 12.85v. When I first got the battery it would sit @ 12.6v consistently so you are correct mr. grout scoutt! After a few charges it would start decreasing in voltage. Now it won`t hold a charge at all. I think i`ll just take it back .Thanks yous Guys
