I’ll cut a long story short. My girlfriend has had cause to be sat in her car waiting for a few hours today. She messaged me saying she’d got her Kindle but the battery was flat.
Charge it off the car, I suggested. She said she doesn’t want to sit there with the engine running for four hours, I told her just to plug it in as there’s no way a Kindle is going to empty a car battery.
She’s just messaged me again and I’m sure you’re all a step ahead of me here but I’m now going to have to dig out my jump leads.
Was this just a monumental miscalculation on my part or would it suggest a faulty battery? It’s only a small car (VW Up!) but that seems crazy to me.
