Its only 120 bucks and it would help me determine parasitic drain. So I was reading several posts and many mentioned a Walmart battery. When I looked up the Walmart battery for my car a H8 size came up. Now this made me go back to my pictures of the current battery in the car which is a H6. So I looked at more web sites and I am seeing anywhere from H6 ....to H7. Keep in mind I cannot talk intelligently about battery group sizes...CCA...or otherwise. I just pick up what the chart says and install it.

So what do u guys recommend on the cheap....and what size H6 H7...H8

Current battery says MTP-48/H6-1
CCA 730
CA910
RC115
AH70
Its an Interstate Battery.

Novus plastic polish arrived today
New used 3rd brake light arrived today
I just tested my battery it is at 12.40 volts I have not started it for about a week.
There is always a little drain on the battery in a modern day car so at 12.47 I think you may be ok. give it a few more days of sitting (if you can stand it) and see where your at.
