2008 originals still running after years of being treated terribly. I know I'm on borrowed time though.
I replaced my original starter battery about 2 yrs ago. But my boat was an '08 bought in 2010 with 0 hrs. I did drain it down once or twice and just replaced it in 2012.
I replaced mine this year on my 2008 LSV... I trickle charged it all winter as I always do... It worked great 2 weeks before... The blower fired right up... Then I get to the launch and all I got was that click-click-click... So I guess I pushed it to far. Replaced last weekend...
That's what I had last time out. My second battery is only 2 seasons old so it should be OK but I need to replace the original one.
I replaced my original battery about 6 months ago. Got a marine battery at Autozone.
My boat stays outside all the time, and I'm sure the Florida heat shortens the life.
Replaced battery in 2012 and added a battery.
I have replaced my battery's twice. Wish I had power were I store the boat so I could put them on a charger over the winter.
When using multiple batteries, remember to always keep the batteries isolated from each other when not charging.
