As an update all of a sudden it started charging as I would expect . Charger said was full after only 2 hours saying was 100% charged. Voltage now reading 13V so I will see tomorrow what it has gone down to. After 2 weeks 12.6v sounds just fine to my mind |

I have a Noco will start up to a 7ltr diesel it holds its charge for ever and is well worth having in the car. |

My Battery Charger and Booster, they work very well and keep me going.
PS You most likely need a new Car Battery, they never last long once they play up. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011) FL2 Metropolis SD4 Auto 2014 2017- (16k - 79k+ miles) (MY2015) Metro in its 11th Year of (Extended) LR Warranty / Full LR Service History (Expensive, but Trouble/Worry free - hopefully?)

I have always wondered how something small as such can turn an engine over. |

you will not be disappointed with it it’s a life saver at times plus a decent torch and you can charge your phone etc you may be surprised how compact it is but it’s more than powerful for starting Freelanders etc. |

Once had to jumpstart myself, was pushing the old starter battery to see how long its life would be. Jump started from the 4 x 26AH gel batteries which are mostly used for the fridge.

Down under we need a fridge for cold beer. Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

When our one is sorned I put a noco charger on every month or 3 weeks to keep it topped up never takes long till it’s finished it’s charging. Even at the moment it’s not moved for over a couple of weeks it will still start ok. |
