Battery

Just returned from Bangkok (business). I departed on 5 Oct and returned today, 30 Oct. To my dismay I returned to an extremely dead battery. The battery is at least two years old. Everything was turned off minus the stuff that stays on.

Is it reasonable for the battery to be dead after almost a month of inactivity?

Get yourself a Battery Tender Plus and keep that battery charged while you are away for more than a couple of weeks. Battery life is shortened after being drained all the way down.

A Battery Tender Plus is an inexpensive and worthwhile investment. I have one for my motorcycle and vette - works great!
