This seems weak. Is it normal or shared by others?

Yeahhhhh... That seems weak... I have had my hatch open for HOURS, and no issues (I do have LEDs, they do get pretty hot though, so it still burns electricity) but I have slept in my car with my phone charging while listening to music (Bose system) for about 4 hours and my car started up fine...
You can go to any Sears (with an automotive department) or MOST Sam's Clubs, or Walmart, or the dealershit and they can check your CCA (Cold cranking amps) Since I'm not the battery expert, maybe someone can chime in, but in all my battery changing experiences, that's what they always complain about... (I'd suggest a local automotive store, but usually you have to bring the battery in, which isn't exactly fun on the 370...)
