It's that time of year when many of us will be leaving our cars garaged and unused for protracted periods and I was wondering about what the safe minimum voltage would be to allow the battery to get down to. I know Enoch has done an excellent video showing how to wire up for a trickle charger but is it really necessary? Mine has been unused now for 3 weeks and today the voltage reads 11.3V with ignition on.
I've never had problems with any car before but it seems some high performance cars need constant charging, my brother's Bentley GT speed and Porsches soon run down and their manuals advise on trickle charging.
Do I need to worry?
