Yeah, but for those 100 odd miles it gets USEDahoooga wrote:Dark at Tea Time, slightly colder , so lights and heater on more than normal , only 100 miles a week = 2-3 starts and not enough miles to charge it back up , it all adds up
Batteries are like humans , work fine one minute then dead without warning

Doesn't make a blind bit of difference though . the alternator output is regulated, so it don't matter if the lump is screaming at 8000 revs or 500 revs.Weiß-sechs wrote:

3 starts of a V8 is enough to upset it, only run 100 odd mile in between those starts with a few ancillaries on and its game over for a battery.
Look at it like your bank account , you stick 500 a week in, but spend 600 a week, and there's no coming back

Usually in the most annoying of places!!! My truck usually lets go sat on a weighbridge.......
