Re: [DML] Typical discharge rate for a stored battery

The Golden rule to remember about automotive batteries(lead acid 
batteries)is that they discharge at the rate of 1%(one percent)(for a 
good,fully charged battery)a day

My math comes up with a different answer after 30 days because on the second
day the battery is no longer at 100% but 99% and so instead of 1% drain it
is 0.99% drain. Thirty days becomes almost 74% not 70%, and after 100 days
you are only 63.4% discharged rather than 100%. In Texas that is a
considerable difference.
