If Duncan got "a" trickle charger, he'd still have about 10 cars going flat a week... -
Why not just get a trickle charger? -
Yup. When I bought my car initially, the battery was flat for a long time and took over a week of constantly driving to FINALLY get the light to go green on the battery. Then if I didn't drive for a few days it would go red (as in needs a recharge), it just got weak as it sat for too long. Ended up destroying part of my security system and would set off my alarm randomly lol. Now I just use a trickle charger, great stuff and repairs your battery to.

Yes, letting batteries go flat, and then recharging them is not kind on them at all. My above was more around as the batteries age on. Going flat and recharging them very quickly shortens their life span.

I guess it depends how much you use a car, but my #1 reason for killing lead acid batteries is not driving the car (charging the battery) often enough,. I've got sick enough of dying batteries that I've switched to AGM; they are much more expensive but deal better with cold weather and almost always recover from being dead flat, unlike lead acid ones
