Hello all, the (new) battery in my 430 has again gone flat - a combination of lack of use (I know, I know...) coupled with an over enthusiastic tracker/alarm/etc.

The car came with a CTEK XS 3600 but there is no power (or sunlight) in the underground car park it lives in.

My question is this; if I plug the CTEK into something like this power pack, will it charge the vehicle?

If so, are there any risks? The CTEK website states that output power is reduced automatically at high temperatures...

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks,

PCMM

Thanks to everyone for the replies. I'm picking up a Ring Powerpack RPP265 - 33Ah tomorrow so will see how long it lasts keeping a fully charged battery topped up.

Will report back!

Cheers,
