Default Battry issues

Hello, i had my saxo's battery die on me a few days ago and got jumped / charged the battery but it doesn't seem to start as quick as it did before but i didn't charge it 100%
do you think it would be better to just get a new battery or fully charge my old one?
also if i needed to get a new one could you recommend any that wont die so easy with a sub/amp etc stealing the power or an other options.
Cheers
-Luke

fully charge your old one first - no point spending money for the sake of it. See if it last okay or just goes flat again.

If it goes flat again then buy a new one and hope nothing is draining your battery when it's off as the new one would go flat too.

it works fine after iv driven it about abit but the first start up is a lil sluggish it does start first time but it just takes 3 secs longer than normal.

the amp needs to be re-wierd? i have a sub/amp built in one box.
