I'm actually driving my "toys" more. Less traffic and more time on my hands.

I remember this topic from years ago and someone saying that leaving the car unlocked is in fact a massive drain on the battery because it puts all the electronics in "here we go" mode and ready to activate when you jump in to your unlocked car, as opposed to being asleep in a locked car.

If it’s a Porsche CTEK have him check regularly that it’s charging with three lights on. In the last couple of weeks I’ve had a couple of power failures and each time it resets to standby mode with only the green power light on which means it’s not charging/maintaining. I have to hit the mode button twice to reactivate car mode.

I start jonesing to drive it now that i am not driving to work. In addition to the battery-anybody worry about tires flat-spotting? I just put some new wheels and Michelin MP 4s and they ride very smooth compared to my prior set up; don't want to chance that they will flat spot on me.

For the CTEK charger, I guess we are supposed to use the snowflake with AGM batteries. Does anyone know what a 2019 C2 has by any chance - AGM or regular?

Check your owners manual. Mine includes the below:

I don't see an issue with driving, the executive order pertains to non-essential work and social distancing, there are plenty of cops around NYC and no one has stopped me in the past 2 weeks. I haven't been getting out of the car or stopping to meet people other than pulling over and taking an occasional picture.
Maybe you guys disagree?
