WorryWart
My dash clock (50 Merc - 12v) has been refurbished and when I reinstalled it I noted the clock solenoid clicks every 5-6 minutes to pump up the wind mechanism. I formerly thought the intervals would be more like 30 minutes or an hour.
It would be nice to know how much energy is consumed each time it clicks to calculate how much it depletes the battery but that's not my question. But I can worry that the clock could eventually drain the battery, drip drip drip. Has anyone found the need to disconnect the clock if the car isn't run every 3months? 6months? Or dust I worry for naught? |
