Sounds like you have something wrong with your setup and its probably something simple. Take it out and put it on charge, overnight, with a decent battery charge,r then take it back to were you purchased it for a load test. That will tell you if its any good or not.
Couple of questions Daryn
What type of Battery is it? Model No if you can get it. ACDelco batteries have been around for a while and should be OK. You short cut only takes me to the cover page.
Saying that I can go to a battery wholesaler near were I work and he can give you a battery case and any brand sticker you want to go on it
How is your battery cycled, charger and maintained?
Batteries must never be discharged till they are really flat as this shortens their life.
Batteries should never be left in a discharged state as this shortens their life.
Batteries should never be left sitting on a concrete floor as this shortens their life.
Batteries should be regularily discharged and used otherwise this shortens their life. Keeping a battery fully charged and never discharging it is not healthy for a battery
If not using a DC to DC charger in your carvthen you should regularily put your deep cycle battery on a decent 240V battery charger to maintain it. This will effectivly bring it up to 100% charge and prolong its life.
As handy as it is, having your second battery mounted under the bonnet and not really using it for its intended purpose is not real good for the longevity of your battery. I for one will never mount my second battery under the bonnet. It sits at home on float, on a piece of timber, Its a wet cell 95Ah battery that is nearly 4 years old now and still runs my Waeco 50 Lt and campsite lighting for at least 2 1/2 days without being charged
