My 2 brand new batteries are losing their charge slowly over time (i.e. 2-3 weeks) after non use. Just like the previous ones.
This is still happening after I have disconnected my bilge float switch from the battery and battery switch is turned off. My alternator on my main engine and kicker work great when their running. I also have an isolation switch on my depth sounder that completely turns off the power supply to the unit and the black box is turned off. All electronics are taken off the boat when not in use.
When I check for voltage from my +/- distribution posts that are above the battery switch I get a 0.oo1 volt or 1.3 milli watt volts reading when the battery switch is turned to off. I am thinking this should read zero.
Any ideas what is causing this power draw and how to fix it?
