LCR flat battery..

[greck999]

Hope someone can throw some light on the matter..
My battery keeps going dead only after 2/3 days of not being started. It's a brand new battery and has a 20 mile run to work and back.
Testing with a volt meter showed a slight drain of .15 volts for the alarm and it was charging with the alternator to 14 volts.
Has anyone had a prob with the alternator intermittently charging or does this not happen.
I have fitted gauges which were permanently live but I have since changed that...
It's so frustrating.

Thanks.

Neil.

i ruined my battery by having it flat for short periods of time with no charge in it. Apparently this isn't great for it.

Checked and it goes out. So im stumped. What could be the drain..
I'm hoping the new battery isn't faulty.
It was the reason I changed it in the first place, because it was going flat. Maybe it was fine after all.
