Dead

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Did you forget to turn off the fridge?
Maybe the mechanics isolated the battery?

You really need to disconnect EVERYTHING including the Junsi and any other monitors, gas alarms etc as even the slightest drain will eventually drain the batteries completely.
I have a master battery switch which disconnects EVERYTHING except the Junsi which is disconnected by unplugging it! The same for the solar, it has its own master switch.

The biggest drain that no one realises will kill the battery is an inverter. Even if it is turned off, it still draws power to keep the circuitry ready and the capacitors charged so it is always alive, even after the low battery cut out voltage is reached.

We might need to upgrade the system when you visit next time so it has a battery isolator and a complete system shut down switch that turns the battery monitoring stuff off as well.
Been thinking about adding this to the system but wasn't sure it was needed. You aren't the first person to end up with a drained battery because it was in a shed for repairs for wekks that turned into mths. A tough call between making the system over complex and even more expensive, to covering all possibilities

High heels, short skirt and fishnet stockings, but best shave the legs first, then work the corner were the street light's broken .... and take the bucket of 5 cents pieces to the bank to change it into $20 notes each week till you've saved up enough money .... to pay for the high heels, short skirt and stockings :lol:
