Ha my battery was 4 years old so I guess I had it coming to me. So Im at work listening to some bump while on a break (with the windows down) Turn off the car and go inside. Of course I left the windows down it was 70 degrees and absolutely a perfect day. 30 min. later the sky turn pitch black and I ran out to my truck to roll up the windows and OH SHIT. The usual signs of my battery dying lights flicker doors lock and unlock guages randomly go up and down. So long story short I had to trashbag my windows which actually worked very well and watch as one of the worst storms this year pounded down while I'm inside working. I think what happened was the day before I hooked up three amps with 2 kicker l5's and a kappa perfect which must have finished off my decaying battery. New battery everything is all good! O yea lots of deposits on the plates of the battery when I looked inside.

One time I "forgot" that I had the mounty switched onto acc. and my cousin was listening to the new sub/box, of course at a loud volume.Tried turning it on, no go.Turned the radio off and let it sit for a minute, barely started.Anyway, about two weeks later after it acting perfectly fine, I go to start the mounty with no success.I figured that last little "bump" just finished it off as well.
