I have notice that if I don't drive the boxster for a few weeks it's hard to turn over?
..Need to put on the charger, any one notice this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

yup these days modern cars and their security and memory systems need a trickle charger attached when not in use for more than a week. The battery tender is an ideal one as it does not overcharge the battery. If you are not driving any older car (say 90s or older) for more than two months, I would actually remove the battery.
I have had a trickle charger on my Ford GT now since it was new, and the 2006 battery is still good! |
