3. What if your car battery dies?
Is a common problem for:
● Travelers leaving car unattended
● RV campers in the wilderness
● Folks that don't regularly start their car (e.g.
staying indoors during cold winters)
● People who leave their lights on by mistake
● People who live in cold areas
4. Batteries... how do they work?!
● Over time internal chemical reactions reduce
the stored charge of the battery even without
any connection to an electrical system.
● Over time your car's electrical system can
develop a parasitic draw and even
discharge your battery overnight!
5. <gasp> What can I do?
What if your car could stay charged even when
you are away?
