that's good to know about normal overnight drop.
maybe the internal fuse is shot on my multimeter, cause i just got zeros when i tried to test a draw (one attached to neg battery terminal and the other to neg battery cable), but i tested the trunk light connection in series (when light should be on) and got .02 mA... so it registered something, although isn't that low for a light?
I may have to try some other tests to verify multimeter is working.
Started car and voltage at battery went from 12.65 (car off after charging for a little while) to 13.5-13.6 (car running), so I know the battery is being charged in excess of 12.5 volts.
Maybe there's an intermittent short in battery or something that randomly produces failure conditions? Possible?
