Maybe you accidentally left a dome light on?

Yes, I measured with a multimeter and the battery reads 10.6 Volts, way too low. Car has been sitting a little longer than a week, and no I didn't leave anything on as far as I know. I checked with multimeter again and got a drawing of 1mA when the car was turned off. Not sure what the normal drawing for off car is.

I have ordered a CTEK 7002 (battery tender) from amazon which I plan to use, see if the battery reacts. I tried to jump start it with my other car but it didn't work. If the battery tender doesn't work I guess I will go for the battery warranty (3 years).
