[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1267664, member: 3187"] My son had to stop riding for an extended period (broken bones and stuff, predicted three months off riding, turned into 18 months). Anyway, he put his charger on his bike's battery, plugged it into a timer so it would charge something like an hour once a week. Totally sh*gg*d what was a new battery. We measured its drain on his replacement battery, it was something like 200mA. 12 AH, 0.2 A, nominally 60 hours to fully discharged, once a week, every week for months. No wonder it destroyed the battery. [/QUOTE]
