Battery Dead after using Air Zenith!

Alright so i got the back dropped monoleaf and 3inch block.

Bagged the front - 4 GC 350 Valves, 2 RE5 Slams, 9 Gallon Tank, Silver Air Zenith Compressor
Problem i am having is the battery went dead after in installed the compressor, using a multimeter all the valves, compressor, switchbox is grounded out...took the truck to autozone and the charging system checked out found out it was a bad battery. Didnt have this problem before the compressor was installed.

Question is could the compressor be bad? If so what compressor should i get now? i was looking at Viair 480 or possibly the new Viair 492 or 495

your battery could already be on its way out and putting that extra pull on it killed what was left of it.

the battery was an optima red top which was built or put together or what ever it was in 09-08

did you run the battery dead?

All I know is that if you decide to get different compressors a pair of 480s is what I've been running and they treat me very well, just a thought.


P.S. They are on sale at the BAG SHACK this month.
