Battery problems

[joust]

Anyone else finding their battery going flat so it won't turn the engine after just 2 weeks of not using it?

I've ordered a trickle charger - but it seems a bit quick for it to run down - be interested if anyone else has the same problem.

Yep had 2 AA home starts now - had to disable my origin blue................

Probably about right, a couple of weeks with the alarm on as it's not that big a battery. I put the charger on if I'm going to leave it more than about a week.
Sounds like you're going the right way as long as the charger you've ordered is something like the Accumate i.e. switches itself off when the battery is fully charged. Can do as much damage to the battery by overcharging it as if it is left discharged.

Yep - I've ordered one of those £40 intelligent jobies from the TVRCC (don't tell anyone )
