Clifford alarm is killing my battery in store

[mart1983]

Ok, I have my car in the garage and I ain't used it for about 2 weeks but it has flatted my battery. I have jumped the car with some leads and all is fine.
I was wondering if it would be ok to disconnect the battery when it's in store and will the alarm be ok on reconnecting it. The alarm is a Clifford g5!

Cheers mart

Or if its left outside one of those solar things that plugs into the cigarette lighter

Put it in service mode and disconnect the battery. When you reconnect it will still be in Service mode

g5x2 then lock x1 iirc.

I know of a few people who raved about them.

Thing is with solar stuff it only needs day light to work so even muggy days it will work well

2 weeks? I should be so lucky. 5 days and mine goes.
