[QUOTE="evasive, post: 9203684, member: 75020"] High temps in the summer can damage a battery with symptoms showing up when it gets cold so being in a warm climate does not mean you are without concern. One drain on a good battery should not kill it but the only way to check is to get a read from each cell if it is not a sealed battery. I usually just replace batteries with an Optima battery from the get go. Haven't done that yet on this car but will when I return in a few months. If you are gone quite a bit, get a Yellow top (deep cycle) otherwise a Red top should do just fine. Factory batteries are usually junk. [/QUOTE]
