Odyssey PC680 Battery Drained
Wats up, searched and found nothing, I figured Id post this question about my batt in here.
I was wondering if it is normal for my type of batt to drain from leaving the hazards on too long? The batt died from having them on for about 2-3 hrs. I dont over use it and I dont run a big bangin system, just a regular head unit w/ four regular Alpine 6.5 inch speakers. Heres a link to the specs of this battery http://www.odysseybatteries.com/battery/pc680.htm
Thanks in advance and any info is appreciated.

Normal? Depends on alot of things... How old is the battery?

Re: (B18C_EJ8)
I have had that battery for over a year. There was a timespan where I wouldn't drive the car for several days to a week, the battery would always die. Now some idiot wrecked into my other car, so I'm driving this car every day again. Charged the battery up and it's worked fine since. I used to abuse the hell out of it delivering pizza. It still holds a higher charge than any other battery I've tested.
I doubt that helps. That's just a testimony that yes, this is a good battery. If it dies again, try charging it on a low setting for a long period of time regardless of what the voltage is.

Thanks for your reply. The battery is pretty much brand new bought from Odyssey, not used...
