Question

My car is getting used infrequently at the moment and the ***!!!!@~ battery keeps going flat on a car that is 10 months old. Can I get a better battery that will stop the alarm draining it so fast??? Many thanks.

Hello,

I think that the battery on a Turbo is a "high power" spec as standard. You may find a good brand unit may be better if you have a unbranded unit.

Have you considered getting the alarm checked to make sure its not a problem?

You could also look into a trickle charger often used by Elise/Caterham owners who are will experianced in the occasional car use. It will keep the batetry topped up at no/low risk. Try one of the kit car mags or a Elise site.

I dont use or need one myself so cant vouch for thier effectiveness.
