My battery keeps dying every 2 days so I just quickly got the multimeter out.

The battery was reading 12.78 at idle (I charged it yesterday) when I increased the revs the voltage actually dropped from 12.78 to 12.77 so I'm guessing the stator coils burnt out, it's dark out so ill check it in the morning.

If it is the problem what actually causes them to burn out or ground on the case?
I know they create a lot of heat but is there anything else that's a usual culprit?

There expensive, I don't want to replace it and it burn out again.
