battery help

Yeah. As the battery nears full death it'll start to lose charge more and more frequently. If it's just a bad battery then a replacement will be all that's needed.

As Paragon suggested, get an optima as the replacement. If you're still within the first year, you should be able to get a replacement from the dealer.

If not, then get a yellow top. It's more resilient to discharges than a typical starter battery. So if it turns out that you have a drain on your system that's responsible for killing your first battery, then it won't get ruined as easily as the OE battery would. Obviously, though you'd have enough to justify the dealer chase down the drain.

BTW, discharge in 6 days is absolutely not normal.

Is there a Particular Yellow Top to buy? When I bought the replacement for mine the Knuckle head at Advance Auto parts said there was no Optima for the hummer. I ended up with a non Delco battery that looks just like the old one. Does the optima use the same mounting system as the factory battery? thanks for the help guys.

A little search'l do you.

D34/78 is the biggest yellow top and has top and side posts. It fits in the stock tray nicely.

See here for specs.
