So I’ve been on my back for five days with Flu and Brochitis and I had to get a present out of the frunk. It opened with the key. It then occurred to me that I left my radar detector on for the past week. Now the car won’t start. I left the door unlocked just in case. Is it too late to plug it in and trickle charge it for a couple days?

No, it is not too late.

should revive fine

Yeah, try the trickle charger, you should be fine. Even then, a jump pack would bring the battery back and you wouldn't have an issue. Hope you feel better!

You guys were right. Thanks , it’s working alreeady! Merry Christmas to all!

Glad it worked out, and I'm happy to hear your car is back up and running. I have a question for the group. I've heard different information on the AGM batteries. Can you use a trickle charger on AGM batteries? Can you use the battery conditioner/recycle setting on the charger on the AGM batteries? Thanks in advance.

AGM batteries need to be charged at a slightly higher voltage. Some charger/conditioners have that setting (snowflake mark). AGM batteries should not be charged in the recondition mode (at least CTek charges so state).

What ADias said is also what I have heard from several sources. My Cali has an AMG battery, so I upgraded to a CTEK (56-353) MULTI US 7002.

This has been my concern as well...can someone post a picture of the two different type of Porsche chargers?

ADias

Get a charger directly from CTek instead - .

This is one that I got. As mentioned above, by it direct, and avoid Porsche tax.
