Battery drain

[nahfloors]

My new north star battery has been draining in a few days so I tested for parasitic draw. 10 milliamps for Dual pro charger (unplugged) and 100 milliamps for my Ethernet port. Ethernet is easy enough to unplug, but is 100 milliamps enough to drain a 220 RC battery in 3 days?
I’ll be testing the battery soon but wanted to see what you guys thought.

What are you calling drained? Something else is causing your problems

[Bobby Winds]

Is there a radio with a clock onboard......they will cause a battery drain.

[Plunker]

How did you test to find the ethernet and charger were drawing?

[TomP.]

You have a bad battery if charged let sit for 3 days and check voltage I have had 3 new Deka batteries go bad in the last 18 months.

220 minute reserve capacity should mean it is about a 90 amp hour battery so it could support a 100 milliamp draw for 900 hours or 37.5 days. Sounds like a bad battery. Disconnect it and check after 3 days.
