Batt. Man

after desulfating my 19 mo. old batt. I went to monthly charge program. my 20 mo. old batt. went from 90% to 100% in 45 min. Go Romondes ! tested first - CCA - 698, SOH - 87%, IBR - 3.56, V went from 12.44 to 13.49, SOC - started at 73% ? when I first hooked it up. I think anything over 3 years is gravy. My Fingers Are Crossed. this is gwango ju-ju Tarzan

Then I have a lot of gravy because I am on my original battery on my 10/15 build 2016 F55 S with 64,000 miles and going. :-)

are you on the Romondes monthly charge plan ? Do you live in Fl. & run your A.C. every time you drive ? No, you're in Jersey. What kind of batt. ? is it also 800 CCA ?

I am probably jinxing myself. My daughter has the same car but a year newer(built in 2016) and her battery just went with 60,000 miles on the car.
