Had an appointment this morning to bring my car in to a dealer for some auto recall work.
But when in the car and turned on the key, heard the click click sound. Drained battery. Must be from too much staying in and not driving often enough (I haven't driven in weeks). Battery not totally drained as lights still turned on but not much more.
Well, I just so happened to get one of those portable type jump starters about a month ago. The kind that jumps cars and also works as a power bank. So, the moment of truth to see if the jump starter delivered as promise. Yes, it did. Jumped the battery on first try, no problem at all. After jump, charge level on the jump starter went down from 100% to 98%. Easy peasy.
