So over the past weekend I was replacing my Brainiac Tablet setup with a Kenwood DMX958XR, bigaudiofanat was helping me.

We found the battery completely dead (~5V). I had a Optima Yellow top which was about 2 years old. So even that I haven't driven in the past 6 weeks but that won't leave it completely dead. Anyway nothing was left on that I could tell so after about a half hour hooked up to his car we were able to get enough charge to get it to turn over and fire. In the process of the install we noticed that the brake light stuck on, so I am guessing the switch is sticking.

Ran my car for another half hour and completed the switch over, it's a pretty nice head unit and I have replaced the battery because while it's probably fine for a daily driver I've heard AGM batteries lose much of the CCA being so totally discharged and running it only every few weeks isn't enough to keep the charge and turn the engine over.
