battery drain

Nickel oxyhydroxide battery (abbr. NiOx, IEC code: Z) is a type of primary cell. It is not rechargeable and must be disposed after a single use. NiOx batteries can be used in high-drain applications such as digital cameras.
NiOx batteries used in low-drain applications, have a lifespan similar to an alkaline battery. NiOx batteries produce a higher voltage (1.7V) than alkaline batteries (1.5V) which can cause problems in certain products, such as equipment with incandescent light bulbs (such as flashlights/torches), or devices without a voltage regulator.

    Car switched on while parked ?

    In the bad old days of ICEs and their ignition systems, I was advised not to leave the ignition switched on with the engine off, for fear of damaging the coil.

    Battery drain (10%-3% overnight) 😲

    So... Completed another long journey cross country yesterday. Arrived with 10% battery and 20 or 21 estimated GOM miles (in Normal). Ambient temp I would guess at 10-12 degrees. Had nailed it, arriving with 10%, or so I thought! Surely a reasonable buffer to aim for? Intended to get up this...
