Re: Charging Issues
No. I recently fitted a USB charging point and the plug in point for the oximiser so I've taken them off hoping it was them causing the issues but no luck.
I've ordered a new reg/rec now so fingers crossed that will finally sort it out |

Re: Charging Issues
have you taken the bike for a run to see if its holding a charge or have you just tested the voltages?

Re: Charging Issues
No but I've charged the battery and left it for a day and it's been the same voltage. It also took a few times starting it where it sounds like the batteries dying before it completely went. And I've also tried it with a brand new battery

Re: Charging Issues
If it's a cheap ebay USB charging point, like the one I fitted recently, that uses a ****ty linear regulator to step down from the 12V of the battery, it could easily burn 30mA just doing nothing if you've not wired it to a switched supply that's only live when the ignition is on.
The one I fitted drained a healthy battery in 4 days... |

Re: Charging Issues
It's got a switch built into it and that was off. I've also taken it off completely but the voltages are still low
