I currently have six Lifeline batteries in my 2005 Inspire. Four of the batteries are 5 or 6 years old and the other two are 4 years old. Is there a way to determine how much life they have left.

Thank You

Yes there is.

If you are near the Lifeline distributor in Azusa, Ca. you can bring in all six batteries. They will set them up in pairs, to get to 12 volts, charge them and do a controlled load test down to a specific state of discharge.
They will take about a week to do the complete test on the set of six. Then they will tell you there estimate of remaining life. If you don't like the answer, they will sell you new lifeline AGMs cheaper than anywhere else I have found.
I have bout two sets from them and had them do the test (no charge for the test).

If you are in Southern Cal it is worth the drive.

Stan,

Contact me offline, I can help you determine if your batteries are aging out and can help if you need replacements.
