Anyone else know what their draw is in the off position? You have to wait for like 7 minutes from hookup for all the relays and **** to turn off. There is about 7 amp pull when you first hook up the battery or open a door. Hell that seems a bit high also...
I'm ready to get a second battery and throw'em both sideways. I know my yellowtop is good, i've tested it. Even swapped the yellow top in my trans am to the h2. Same ****.

I have the exact same problem. I have a red top and a yellow top (2 battery system). After about 3-4 days, the yellow is DEAD. Good thing I can switch over to both and still get started without a jump.
It is a shame to pay that type of coin for a battery just to crap out within 6-8 months of purchase.
DUCK
