n8ball2013 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 you should probably throw it on a charger and see what happens. just becuase you have a lower resting voltage doesnt mean its a bad cell.

ChevyBoy95 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Depending on how hard you push your batts, they need a regular charge on them once in a while, rather than just alt power Quote Best Score to Date : 160.5 dB Outlaw (47Hz)[4 XM 15's & 2 Taramps Bass 12k's] BL : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/147800-chevyboy95s-4-15s-7krms-wall-1533-db-on-half-power/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/hitemwiththeflex/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmareImpala Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Ok I will give them a charge after work and see what happens. Thanks for the input guys Quote TEAM DISTANT THUNDER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan @ XSpower Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 If you are resting at 12V you do not have a bad cell especially if they are still hooked up in the vehicle. Like the others said a top off charge will go a long way in extending the life of your batteries and increasing the performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightmareImpala Posted November 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) 97maxima........When the cars running I am at 14.8v so I am sure the alt is working normally Edited November 29, 2011 by NightmareImpala Quote TEAM DISTANT THUNDER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
