I have hooked the trickle charger up during the winter when I think about it.

Good Morning to you Sunshine.
What do you have for charging and maintaining?
And maybe try to figure out why its failing - I mean chemically.
Can you open up the cells and add some water??? That will help the battery last longer...
I was thinking first to check the level and concentration.
Don't want to thin it out.
Add water, then charge it...
The acid concentration will be right after you charge it all the way...
Mine is a spiral wound inside.
It appears your gold membership has expired. Good morning.
Here is what's inside of my case.
Well the battery (dry battery) is only a couple months old. They (Antique Auto Battery) make them as you order them.
To be fair since the recharging problem is solved, alternator is working as it should, I probably just need to give it some time and see how it works.
But if there's a bunch of heavy buildup on the plates, that needs to be broken up.
Or if its fallen to the bottom as flakes - that doesn't reverse easily either. right?
There's a chemical that supposed to help with that. I'll try to find the name of it.

My smart charger will de-sulfate a battery. Wonder if that is the issue. You need a VAT 40 @halifaxhops to properly test. A individual cell test with a hydrometer might tell the story.
It used to be called VX6
Only a problem if you cook 'em off. And they don't like a heavy charge 'cause the acid is absorbed in the matting so they get hotter with more recharge current. Definately did not do that battery any favors by recharging off the alternator after the jump starts.Then you can't add water to those sealed type....
Never knew the brand name. The article gave the chem name - good mostly if you had access to an old school phamacy or chem supply.
Trickle charge. Fast charging a battery greatly reduces its lifespan.
