My battery died on my so i went to Canadian Tire to get it charged.

They told me the battery was good at 637cranks (specs say it should be 650 cranks).

So i go home put it in, everything works for a day or 2.

Then it dies on me again. I do make some short trips but its not more than what i have been doing before, and probably less now cuz im "battery-aware".
(using the battery for about 1.5 years)

Question:
Is it possible that the battery de-charges by itself? Even though its at 637 cranks, is there other things that might make the battery defective?
