Let this be a lesson to me!!

Parked the Cerb on the drive two days ago and forgot to take the front of the radio. In itself not a problem but it drains the battery because of its clock. Usually she's on an Optimate so problem - not this time.

Flat as a witch's tit! Nothing, Nada, Zilch. Why does this always happen when you want a drive?

Anyway one hour (yes really) of getting the angle of dangle right to get in (;)) She's on the charger.

So, please feel free to give me a load of grief because I should have known better.

It's surprising how short a time from no doors at all,not even a try, to opening without a hitch when the Optimate is on

Two days! Blimey. Are you sure it's just the stereo? We really have to get to the bottom of this discharge (ooer) problem. I can get maybe 4 days out of mine.

That and the chocolate clutch parts are the only things that get me about the cerb.

Or the window smashed, stereo laying there and car nicked.....lol

Mines lasts for a good 3-4 weeks (yeah i know i shouldnt really know that and i should be driving it more often lol)

[Tyre Smoke]

I know if I remove the stereo, it'll last weeks.

Still, be nice and ready in the morning.

You have either got a duff battery or a major drain. The battery should be able to play your stereo for more than 2 days before going flat (unless you have a massive amp!!!!!!!!!!).

Somebody with expertise in this area should be able to diagnose the issues some are having in this area. Has anybody solved this issue?

[Tyre Smoke]

New battery last year and still under warranty. Will get it tested. I did think it a bit odd, but put it down to short runs.

[C2HYM]

When I park up I tend to leave the bonnet unlocked, the battery has never given up on me but I can't be arsed with all the faffing about if it should.

I'd Just like to say that from experience, I've found that witches tits are usually Flat, dry and cold, so your all correct.
