start off by checking all door switches. Then check the interior switch on the dashboard. I mean by checking as in bypassing switch or disconntection of the switch. If you have the theater dimmer or the delay dimmers you would check that also.. Thanx Dom

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 isn't charging properly as the battery is charging at a rate of about 1 per hour from a wall plug and it's losing charge while plugged in any solutions?

Is the wall charger one by Samsung, or a third party? If it's the latter, I would suggest either getting a Samsung charger, or finding a charger that can charge 2.1A. 1A capable chargers are passable, but expert the output to be much slower. In any case, turning off the tablet and allowing it to charge should charge faster than when it's on. Now even if you get a better charger and your Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 is still losing charge faster than getting charged, you can look at getting the app like Battery Stats Plus (it's free) and it can tell you what's causing the drain. There could be an app that's constantly awake that's causing excessive draining. Worse case, there's the possibility that the battery is no longer functioning properly. That then may require battery replacement.


How many cells are in a battery?

Does a 7200mAh battery last longer than 4400mAh?

mAh stands for milliamp hours and is a partial measure of the energy that can be stored in a battery. It is the standard used for rechargeable batteries but rarely used for non-rechargeable batteries. The rating is only a partial measure because the voltage affects the total energy stored. For a given mAh rating, the higher the voltage of the battery, the more energy can be stored. For two batteries that deliver the same voltage, a 7200mAh battery will store more energy than a 4400mAh one. Therefore, the 7200mAh battery should last longer. There are other factors that affect how long a battery can last. The type of load can have a significant effect on the battery life and the condition of the battery itself.

Why is the battery in car dead after sitting over the weekend?

Something must be draining the battery while it is not running. Usually it is caused by an interior light being left on either inside or perhaps the trunk or one of the doors were not closed completely and thus causing the interior lights to stay on and drain the battery. Otherwise, this will continue and you should plan on replacing the alternater and/or battery


Why would the security light on a 1994 Camaro Z28 stay on but the car does run.?

My guess is that maybe a relay or fuse has went bad in the electrical system, causing the security light to stay on constantly, therefore leaving a circuit open. This could be draining your battery, which is why your car is dead.
