Kinda figured that, I need to check the back light setting like Greg said, but I had a feeling about the 12amphr...thanks guys

mtnbykr2 I have been running 9ah batteries on my HDS's (both the 1st gen and Gen2) for 3 years now. The longest I've ran them was about 8 hours and they never quit. I never have my backlight on full though, around 6 or 7. Hope this helps.
