0.21 is quite high, should only really be around 0.02-0.04 (20-40ma 50 at most) 0.21 is 210ma five times more than it should, this would flatten a 60ah battery in just 12 days.

Zed back to its old trick Tuesday flat battery again its been used twice a week 4 hours every 2 weeks on trickle charger when ever possible.Why is it doing this?
I had to bite the bullet and put it into a garage Friday morning is just come back 4 pm Saturday
They tested it can not find a drain but battery low after 25 hours on trickle charge so they gave it 6 hours and said it's now fully charged.
Everything has been checked no drains alternator charging.
Only thing they found taking power was the radio but obviously it does take power for codes but they took fuse 9 and 44 out so no radio to see how it goes.
Garage suggested a electrical specialist and hifi shop as they can't find a drain.
Really at the end of my tether now 3 Rd battery can't keep wrecking them.
Has anyone got a solution or can please please help me.
I fear it will have to go can't carry on like this.
So if anyone can help me I would be so grateful.
Many thanks.
Tracy.
