Yeah, I'll go with that.....
I was really pushing my luck with that battery as it was and am not at all surprised it happened. I am actually pretty lucky that the one I converted to alum didn't do that before the conversion: it was showing way too low a voltage after commute as well. This gives me even more incentive to relocate the 2 batteries in the trunk outside passenger compartment.
