How long does an amp draw last on a battery?
How long does an amp draw last on a battery?
As Mike states, the amp draw is too much. Every time the battery runs dead, it takes some life out of it. A battery should last 5 years approx, some longer. If only getting two years or less, there is a problem somewhere. Read the posts at the bottom of this page for more suggestions of what to look for.
How many amps a car battery draws while turned off?
How Many Amps A Car Battery Draws While Turned Off? The Units & The Factors Generally, a car battery pulls approximately 400 amps for small vehicles to start and more than 1000 amps for the large ones. That is why the car manufacturers provide bigger amps in the car battery than it needs to start.
Is it normal for a battery to draw 85 milliamp?
However, just because an 85-milliamp draw may be normal, that doesn’t mean an 85-milliamp draw won’t adversely impact battery lifespan and performance, if the battery isn’t properly-maintained.
What does key off parasitic battery drain mean?
The fact that your Sienna only pulls around 10mA confirms my suspicion that I have a parasitic drain somewhere related to the ECU-B. Now for the fun part . . . Power draw drops down in steps on cars. The provision for ‘key off operation of power windows’, etc., means that the body ECU is still awake for at least 10 minutes after shut down.

How does the run down time of a battery work?
Refer to Battery Usage when testing the battery. The battery run down time will vary depending on cold cranking amperage (CCA) and reserve capacity (RC). If the CCA and RC are higher, then the battery run down time would be longer. If the CCA and RC are lower, then the battery run down time would be shorter.
How many amps should my car pull while it is running?
Mine was pulling 3amps, 3.6 amps to be exact. What had happened was my Volt Regulator, that regulates how many volts run through your car, went bad.
