Hobie Livewell 2 Battery Lifespan - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Get a new battery. When I had my Revo 13, it was common to have to replace both the 12v 10ah for the FF and the 6v 10ah live well, about every 2-2 1/2 years. Flooder lead acid batteries deteriorate and won't hold the charge as well, and next thing you know they don't even last 2 hours. When I worked at a car dealership, it was the same thing cars came in all the time and the battery would take a dump when they were 2-3 years old. Many last longer, but the majority won't.
