November 26th, 2016 06:56 AM #3My car battery can last 2 months if car is unused. But I make sure it is 100% fully charged by using car battery charger before I travel abroad.

November 26th, 2016 09:35 AM #5as red asks, how old is your battery, po?
i am very familiar with your scenario. we used to do it when we were young and poor-ish, because we had difficulty buying a brand new battery.
in our experience, the battery was simply old and dying. it would hold a strong charge for a short time only. after a few minutes running the engine, we could actually re-start the engine using the starter. but after 30 minutes or so, there was only enough juice in her that we could still push-start the car, but not activate the starter..
have the battery checked at the battery shop, po. sometimes, one of the six cells may be the culprit, but in our experience, once one starts to go, the rest will follow "soon".
another possibility, is that you have a short or a big parasitic leak somewhere. an auto electrician will be able to help you here. but check out your battery, first.

November 26th, 2016 09:52 AM #6How old is your battery? and what Brand? its an indicator of your cars electrical. if you have a premium battery and its
more than 2 years , its time to replace. but if its just 1 year maybe its your electrical system. Delikado na yan darating ang panahon kahit jumpstart hindi na yan aandar. just like dr. d said pa check sa auto electrician.

The only batteries that don't decay are the dry charged batteries, once you activate with sulfuric acid, it slowly matures to death. Factors that accelerate death of the batteries include shock and vibration, heat and deep cycling. Otherwise if the battery dies sooner than the expected life, maybe the charging rate is insufficient in comparison to the current draw or the battery is not big enough for the vehicle
