Battery
I replaced my battery in my C7 , a 2015, last year. But it since has died again. I tried using the battery charger I bought with the car plugged into the socket in the trunk but to no avail. Anyone know if these chargers really work and any ideas why a relatively new battery would die so quickly? I was using it at least 3x a week but it did sit for about 2 weeks prior to this

I leave my 2014 for a couple of weeks at a time with no issues. Parasitic draws are time consuming to troubleshoot. A good meter, reference values, and lots of patience is required. If you don't have these, take it to a reputable shop.
