You can't adjust the voltage when it cuts out. You can lock you car then switch the isolator on. By isolating your battery, it locks the car anyway as the battery is no longer connected.

All you need to do is when you come back and wants to get in to your car, you just de-active the isolator, they you can open your door and the battery will have more than enough charge to start the engine.

have a look at www.batterybrain.co.uk it will give you all the details you need.

Make sure that you get the version with the remote otherwise it will not be suitable for the TUSCAN as you will need access to the isolator to reset it.

Hi onny,
Just wanted to say thanks for recommending the Battery Brain. clap
Left my Tuscan for nearly 4 weeks at an airport car park and for the first time in 5 months was able to start her up and drive off without the aid of a jump or bump start.
Its been driving me crazy. banghead Have tried battery booster and solar charger with no success but last night...great, started first time. bounce

Thanks again,
thumbup
Tony.

I have one of these fitted as well.
Takes away all the worry of a flat battery as well as acting as an anti theft device - it completely immobolises the car.
Little cramped to fit in the battery well but a well worthwhile investment.
