No news to me, boy.

He's probably as old as you.

He isnt.

I've met Bod and he's (I'm about to insult him most likely) very very
old
indeed. I'd have to guess 80 to 90.

Thats just the furious drunken grave dancing and flagrant drug abuse.

Smoking does make your face more wrinkly, but I'm sure he told me his
age once.

For some reason I've always assumed you're about 70.

You're still wrong.

What is your age then?

And back on topic, I just bought a 16 amp 13.8V power supply, that ought
to keep the bloody frog car charged up. It's currently maxing out my
2.5A supply all night, and still not starting in the morning.

That's telling you your battery is knackered. Try a high rate discharge
test on it. You will see it fall over very quickly.

Wrong yet again. I've changed the battery twice. It's consuming power overnight - presumably the alarm - I've actually measured up to 4 amps (randomly, sometimes it consumes nothing) coming off the battery with a meter when all the fuses are pulled. The alarm (to stop theives) cannot be disabled with a fuse. To remove the alarm or replace it involves dismantling pretty much the entire front of the car.
