Yeah, it's on my list of things to take care of. Just need to check the actual age of the battery first. I believe the month/year was stamped into the negative terminal in some instances, not sure how else I would determine the age though.

I've got a good charger and give it a top up about once a month, or whenever it starts complaining about increased electrical discharge (or whatever the alert it)

I topped it up over the weekend and still had the issue, except for this morning when I was actually monitoring the voltage, of course...
