Hi all,

thinking about buying a trickle charger for the Noble, any ideas which is the best one?

And can you trickle charge through the cigarette lighter? Used to be able to do this on others cars.

Thanks

I have an airflow conditioner. I plug it into the cigarette lighter. Works a treat.

Err, drive the car more often! wink

Buy a DECENT battery and don't let it sulphate.

Try these:
they come standard supplied with F430's (go figure!)

Me too. This model is usually available in Costco for £35 including VAT (lists on the web for around £50).
