Could it be the boot light is staying on? Maybe disconect it and see if the problem persists.

Certainly not unheard of with Tuscans, not sure about Tamoras (I've ony owned mine a couple of weeks).

Just an idea.

Something is draining it (dur obvious statement there). So I would try to find that something. A good autoelectrician should be able to measure the voltage and remove fuses/relays until he finds the culprit.

Or it could actually be a tired battery.

You could try a better solar battery charger
Some good stuff here, a bit pricey though.

IIRC Tim Hood the Tuscan racer, sold a battery which has a microchip in it. The chip records how much power the battery actually needs to start the car and then doesn't allow anything to drain the battery past that point. He was trying to get TVR to fit his battery to all new TVRs from new.

The alarm comes on automatically when I lock the doors - How can I stop it?
Ok, if you're prepared to leave it without the alarm, can I ASSUME that it's in a garage? If we get that far, then it's easy - Put a second lock on the garage, and don't lock the doors!
