Hour Meter

We have multiple trucks that are counting hours when not in motion. I am averaging 9-12 hours on fully utilized trucks. I know my batteries are 6-8 hour batteries. When requesting new batteries, due to them under performing, the results state that their average is good, because of the extra hours they're counting. What is the common issue with that on this model?

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
