tried to post the weather station page but couldn,t figure it out . went up to 100 cm on the new bruinswick coast.

 

Good morning everyone, we have some of the ice fog here this morning and it's -35°C ( -31°F)

 

Good morning Nova Scotia, John, Morris, Brian, Rob and wandering visitors..

it is raining here with a significant amount of accumulation. The ditch in front of the house is about full and small ponds forming in the yard..

 

Morning Steve, I have 2 vehicles that won't start and have the charger on the car right now. Once I get it started I'll park it in out of the cold and put the charger on the truck. I need to start buying my batteries some place else, every year for the last 4 years I've had to replace the battery in the truck and I have a trickle charger on the truck. As soon as this cold weather strikes the batteries are shot..

 

hello boys ! taking a break going outside while sun out next . -35 is f--k-- cold john. would you have a parasite draw going on . its -20 here yet with a nice sun shine and a small breeze. got to shovel my shed roof before the storm.

 

I think I have on the truck Brian and why I installed a trickle charger, the battery in the car is 7 years old and just can't take the cold I think

 

Like Brian asked .. is there a parasite in the truck running the battery down. Even a cheap battery ought to last a few years..

 

The garage here in town said it was fine but after talking with the dealership in the way they do the test there likely is but it was the dealership that suggested that I just put a trickle charger on it for $50 rather than pay 1-2 hours labor at $100 so that's what I did but it don't seem to be working..

 

Maybe you might need a bit more than a trickle charger.. Maybe one of the new solid state chargers on 2amps might do better..

 

Biggest problem is I don't drive the truck enough, I had it out at the beginning of the week and it started as soon as I turned the key but the last 2 nights it's been below -30 degrees and I think the brand of battery just can't take the cold..

 

I'm going to go out and see if the car will start now, charger has been on there 2 hours now..

 

I hope all goes well,,

 

It didn't, I'm pretty sure the battery froze last night so will have to wait until I can get a battery on Monday
