When the battery is charging via the alternator there wouldn't be a load on the battery as the power comes from the engine.
Who mentions changing voltage? Doesn't work like that

Is your gubbed battery anything to do with those HID's you fitted which also played havoc with your ECU?

Not sure but got rid of those HIDs a while ago and replaced with DRL headlights. With the old battery, after every journey the level would change from 12v to "Low" in a moment of a few mins with "Economy Mode Active" showing up. Now the indicator is on high-mid and "Economy Mode Active" not showing up so soon.

I go with what the other guy said save your money and just keep it. It might e an inconvenience waiting for the AA and breaking down but if its in warranty keep taking advantage and eventually you can ask for something more for the fact that they are clearly naff batteries tht aren't suitable for your car. I have just had an AA battery put in mine only a week ago, 540 CCA. The old one was 480 and was only kicking out 143CCA when it was tested!
