Do Our Batteries Wear Out At The Same Rate?
In reading these battery threads, it seems that our batteries don't wear out at the same rate. Is their any consensus on this?
My next question is, if they don't, would it make any sense to rotate them periodically? Would this even out the wear?
Thanks!

A beneficial thing to do would be to read about a "equalizing charge" (Google is your friend) and then perform it on a routine schedule.
It will involve removing the batteries from the truck, but that's a good time to make sure the electrolyte level is up-to-snuff, and the terminals are spotless.

Do you have any recommendations for a charger, or the best place to look?
Thanks!

A highly-accurate DVM and an accurate thermometer are also good things to have when servicing these.

Does anybody know of a aftermarket batteryminder that will open the circuit at some predetermined voltage?
I drive a lot for work and have to run a powered cell phone antenna most of the time to get reception, then I get home and forget to shut it off and then the next morning.
