Are the batteries still connected to their cars? Maybe there is a slight =
draw on the TR6. Our TR6 took the whole summer off because it needs a =
new wiring harness. There were some wires that had let the smoke out! =
After I drove it into winter storage, I disconnected the ground cable =
and noticed that there was a tiny spark! Something is leaking current. =
Another project to do!

Hey all ~ Merry Christmas ...!

I have one float charger that serves both my TR3 that has an Optima red =
top battery and my TR6 that has a Sears Die Hard. Seems like even though =
each battery is only 2 -3 years old, the Die Hard seems to need more =
frequent =E2=80=9Ctopping up=E2=80=9D than the Optima.... =
Interesting....
