If I did that in my old GM I would need a jumpstart afterward for sure

Default Were you just checking your system, or did you have a serious problem?

Gotta look out for our friends down-under!

Default 5.5 hours X 10A X 50% duty cycle... sounds about right...

That shouldn't kill a good battery.

Default Had to park in an ambulance bay outside the hospital and when I moved

I forgot they were running-5.5 hrs later when I emerged from the hospital they were flashing away.
At first I thought the alarm had been triggered.
