But would a bad ignition switch cause the car to reset like that? Its never acted up like this until I changed the battery. And your right, I think the weather might effect it. Those days I had the jumps were during a really hot week.

I considered the alt. But it didnt match with instant death of the battery like that. And it is charging otherwise the car wouldnt run now with the short time that battery can run things.

Should i try dthe 21lb? Or take my losses and go with another brand?

Any battery you chose that does not meet the correct BCI specs (CCA, reserve amps, etc.) for your car is going to eventually cause these problems. What makes me chuckle is how much extra you have to pay in order to have all this grief. So you decide which battery is best for your world..............
