Hello everyone,
I found a related topic when I did a search but then that thread went into much technical aspect of electricity, etc. that i didn't understand. So, i just would like to confirm: if my Leaf's battery will be OK when we go on vacation for 10 days? We're lucky to have a garage (the temp. could be down to below 0 here in MN at this time a year). I don't use any spyware or anything that would draw energy from the battery even when the engine is not on.
Also, should I charge it to full (we only have trickle charger at home, and have been charging to full most nights), unplug and leave it be? Or, is it better to be more "empty"? half charged? or just don't worry about it?
Is there anything else I should do for my Leaf before going on vacation? We've had this 2014 SL for about 5 months now and it was brand new when we got it.
thank you for any info and insights!
