What all are you running off it?
Can you replace it with a bigger battery?
Chris you are running an alternator aren't you?
Prior to installing my driveline alternator, I was charging my battery every time I came back to camp. I killed 2 batteries - charging - discharging - charging.
I finally found a guy that owned a bettery shop that knew his stuff. He turned me on to a "wheel chair" battery that is a deep cycle and is designed to get discharged and charged all of the time. It works great.
Now that I have a alternator, I never have to mess wess with charging.
I am probably the exception to the rule when it comes to needing battery power however! He is what runs off my 12 volt system:
Radiator cooling fan
Oil cooler cooling fan
CVT blower fan
On board Compressor for air horns - air up tires - air tools
50 Watt radio and intercomm
GPS
4 HIDs in my hood
6 - Fuegos in my light bar
And the regular stuff..
