My car is just over 4 years old and covered less than 12,000 miles. Since April I have experienced flat batteries on five occasions.
Today I drove ten miles to the (Kia) dealer. They were very good. Tested the battery and told me there was nothing wrong with it. It just needs charging. I am not driving enough apparently.
So. A trickle charger?
My car is not kept in a garage. How can I securely trickle charge a car without keeping it locked and with a window from the house open to sneak the cable through?
How do other people handle it?
Oh and I learned something, despite there appearing to be battery terminals under the bonnet, they are actually connected to a tiny battery in the rear wheel arch bulge in the boot. It is about 45AH. Seems small to me but what do I know.
