Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Nope. I have heard about it on lead-acid batteries (and nicads and NiMH). It's probably possible on an Optima.

Now Phil, you know I didn't say that! ^^ I just said you were an expert on batteries! Although I may have implied the going dead!! part. Just for the hell of it, I clicked on your link in the "Phil Winter pic" thread and here is what I found. I am serious... click here and you will get a good laugh. www.POShonda.com I think you got the site name backwards... I guess the POS part comes first.
