QUOTE(bahjan_2000 @ Feb 5 2024, 05:34 PM) But almost nobody charges their car battery la. Especially now cars got all kinds of gadgets, batt last less than 2 years. Combined with short trips etc etc.. sometimes less time died ald True bro. Modern cars have lots of sensors that are "awake" so there's some parasitic drain on the car batteries.Motorcycles nowadays are also fitted with lots of electronics (although lesser than a car) and will face these same problems. Also driving short distances doesn't really fully charge a battery. So to be safe, just plug in the smart trickle charger (like CTEK) a few months once is good enough. |
