    When I checked the voltage between the posts with a digital volt
    meter, I only got 11.5 volts, I left the charger on overnight, and
    it's now up to 13 volts, so I switched to a maintainer.  It's
    raining here today so I'm leaving it on the charger, and yes I will
    check the grounds for sure! Thanks for the advice to all. I'll let
    you know how it turns out.<br>
    <br>
    Regards,<br>
