Was intending to trickle charge battery overnight but it was fully charged within 40 minutes. It is a 74 Amp Hours battery. Acid levels were slightly low and have been topped up over the plates.
I use car 3-4 times a week. Normally there are 3-5 trips on each of these days ranging from 1/2 mile to 2 miles, on slow, busy roads.
I notice that I do tend to use a high gear while driving, mostly under 1500 rpm except on acceleration to next gear. I've altered my driving this week so that I remain in lower gears to get higher rpm.
Each day I use the car the Aerofoil raises on 1st startup but doesn't normally on subsequent startups especially if short time since previous use.
Engine continues to start 1st time, always (touch wood).
