Ok, with a full charge it starts beautifully.
If I leave the headlights on for five minutes, or my doors open for twenty, it won't start. Acts like the battery is completely drained (which reads 11.5v)
The battery is less than two years old, and tested at 1059 cranking amps earlier today.
When cranking, the voltage drops from 11.5 down to 3-4. Ditto if I grab a different battery.
If I jumpstart it from a car or use a battery charger, it's fine.
Is this an indication of a failing starter drawing wayy too much power?
I had three batteries daisychained in parallel.
The main battery is a decent size, tested to put out 1,059 cranking amps, charging system in good working order.
