G'Day everyone from Australia,

Could someone advise me if it is ok to use a Battery Conditioner(a small box which trickles in a very low voltage) on my 996. The reason for this is that it may stay idle for up to 3 weeks. Prior to owning this car, the 85 Carrera i owned had an Optima deep cycle battery that would drain itself in under a week. The local auto electrician couldn't find a draining point ,so he adivised me to use a battery conditioner. Would this be necessary with the 996? and can it do any harm to the electrics?-also i would have to leave the hood lid on the first click (the locking device) to allow the wire into the battery.

Thanks for any advice you may have

Jason
