Excellent video man explain very well hope you do more man and thanks again!!
I bought one of these recently because my BMW was sitting and the batteries dead. I watched a couple other videos but they weren’t helpful. I love how you showed exactly what to do and the graphics that went along with it. Excellent video! I did subscribe to your channel I’m a 58-year-old woman and I truly believe I can do this by myself so thank you!
Congrats on the new purchase!
I want to say thank you so much for the feedback and sharing your experience. This is what it's all about.

I just bought this because our car isn’t being driven much as my husband has Parkinson’s. The battery just got changed to a new one and the mechanic suggested we keep a trickle charger on it since the old battery was corroded horribly. He suggested trickle will keep it from doing that. Hoping this helps! Loved your video! The tiny manual was ridiculous! Thank you for helping me out since I’m learning a lot since his Parkinson’s happened! Bless your heart!🙏
I am so sorry to hear about your husbands diagnoses, from what you described this should do exactly what you need to keep the battery in good condition and ready for use. This is what I love about the channel is the ability to help those learn or gain the confidence they need to tackle a job they other wise would never try. Be sure to subscribe so you dont miss out on future content and if you ever need help vehicle related feel free to reach out anytime!

I don’t understand anything you said. I would like to to do a demonstration on a dead actual car battery installed n a car
Thank you so much for your video - outstanding review. I have bought this one on Amazon. However, there was no manual included, just the accessories brochure. I am a 77 year old woman who is not mechanically very inclined. I bought this for my lawnmower battery which is dying every winter. I read the features on the package but did not know the explanation of the different lights, nor how to use it. Thank you very much again, your explanations are clear, precise and professional.
Great Review. Just bought two Noco Chargers. You gave the best uncomplicated explanation of the unit online. Thanks for your help!!!!

Thank you. I watched quite a few videos but this is the first in depth explanation on what this product does and how it works, I haven't used anything like this before, now I'm confident I will be able. Cheers
Thank you I couldn’t figure out how to do the 6 V charge mode. There was no directions to this so thank you very much.
Excellent and easy to follow video. I am a snowbird and have two cars which I am leaving behind in storage. Both cars have 12 volt AGM batteries and this video assured me that I was using the Noko Genius 1 properly.

I went with this over a Schumacher. (I was reading some bad stuff about their "bad battery" feature.) The NOCO needs a MUCH longer cord. And an on/off switch! (For reasons too detailed to list here I can't hook this up to an on/off power strip.) Now I have to purchase the NOCO 10' extension which is back in stock RIGHT AFTER I purchased the GENIUS 1. Because of course it is. LOL. NOTE: Because of "parasitic draw" I hook up a smart charger every time I park my car. (Sometimes it sits for more than a week.) My last BMW battery lasted 13 years. Every brand of smart charger I looked at is designed WITHOUT an on/off switch so you can't unhook them & GO without unplugging them everytime you drive. Safety feature? Or just plain DUMB? I think it's dumb.
Otherwise, good review of a highly rated charger!
Hello, thanks for reaching out and your comments. You are 100% right the Noco 1 needs a longer cord... I do not like how the unit it self is the plug. The other models are not set up like this. I am also in the same boat with my C63 AMG. The parasitic draw is heavy and the battery needs maintained when it sits. I now use this noco genius as the dedicated maintainer for it and has been working great since. An on / off would be a nice addition.
When I use the quick disconnect feature I will only use that to disconnect the battery from the unit and leave the unit plugged in. It will default into standby mode. I am not sure if this the recommended method by Noco or if it should be unplugged from main power every time, but something to consider.
Thank you again for your comments and support to the channel, be sure to leave a thumbs up on the video and consider subscribing if you haven't already. The additional support goes a long way to help the channel grow.

@@FullThrottleBHP I have the quick disconnect on my Harley on an old Deltran charger & leave it plugged into power all the time. I've been doing it for years without any problem. You're probably okay doing this. However, I once unplugged it from the power to do some cleaning in the garage & left the entire unit hooked up to the battery. I forgot to plug it back in & after 2 days the Deltran totally drained the battery. It was dead & there was no bringing it back up even with a quick charger. I don't know why this happened. So I never leave a charger unplugged without also removing it from the battery.
Unfortunately my BMW (battery in the trunk) has jumper posts under the hood which won't allow me a permanent hook-up for quick disconnect. The posts are too big. I have to use the clips. I actually need the unit that plugs into the wall. I talked to NOCO support (email) bacause the initial 1 amp charge was so slow (& another issue below). It took days to get a solid green light on a BRAND NEW battery. They recommended I buy the Genius 5. Overkill & too expensive. After the initial charge on the Genius 1 it brings the battery up pretty quickly after I drive the car. So maintenance is working just fine. I have no idea why the intial charge takes so long. But, other people have complained about this same issue. So far, this is a GREAT charger!
IMPORTANT: It's ESSENTIAL to know the chemistry of your battery & use the proper setting. (Per NOCO support) Fully charging (SOLID GREEN) a lead acid battery on the AGM setting will damage the battery. The first day I had the charger set to AGM & luckily it was still in the RED. Support told me as long as it hadn't fully charged (SOLID GREEN) the battery on that setting it would be okay.
NOCO email support is pretty awesome. Don't hesitate to use it. They respond in a timely manner & they're very knowledgable.
Just bought one and very impressed with it
That is great to hear! My noco chargers are all still going strong and used pretty well every day to maintain multiple different batteries. They are a life saver.

Hello, helpful video. One question, can the car battery be left fully connected when the being charged in maintenance mode. I would like to have the terminals permanently fixed and then just pop the hood and plug in the charger.
Thanks for reaching out, glad to hear you found the episode helpful.
Yes, you can leave the battery fully connected to the vehicle for maintenance charging. The built in quick disconnect wire harness on the Noco genius is a great feature for this. You can use the eyelit connectors to permentantly attach to your battery and then easily connect/disconnect the charger.
If you have any other questions be sure to let me know, will help anyway I can. Please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing as well if you have not already. I greatly appreciate your support.

just got one today. battery prices have really went up since the last time i purchased battery around 2019-2020. $30 and really easy to use. thanks for the detail video. should of gotten the 5 as i am trying to charge up my dead car battery. no rush as it is not the daily. also i like the fact that you do explain that it is not good to get the 5 or 10 for a motorcycle batteries as some other yt video i seen just says get the 10 if u can afford it
Can't believe I went to the trouble of ordering this item online, running a battery test on both of my cars with my OBDII scanner, determining that both batteries were in good condition, then hooked this up to both cars for 48 hours..........nothing but a pulsating red light. Never charged either battery. Company apparently has no QC.
Sadly this has been a comment I've seen before regarding some with a pulsating red. Everyone who has commented after noco support classified them as faulty had sent them a new unit.
I would like to know how common this is for sure. As anything electronic can have faults. As long as the company stands behind there product.
Be sure to rea h out to them and report back. Would love to hear what they have to say. Wish you had a better experience.
- Full Throttle
@@FullThrottleBHP Thanks for the suggestion....was just in contact with NOCO support. They were not willing to help beyond telling me to return the unit to Home Depot. I thought thy might have been wiling to do some sort of customer service gesture for my trouble. Guess not. When I was in management in the financial services business, I would have made sure the client was left happy with the company, even if it cost us a few bucks.
@@WriterandPhotographer I agree 100% The days of true customer service is far between as it use to be. I certainly feel they dropped the ball on this one. Have to say i am shocked and sad to hear this. I promote a lot of their products solely based off my personal experience I have with them and am not rewarded in anyway. This is why I love hearing from my viewers so I can be sure to share all of your experiences on later episodes as well. My goal with this channel is to bring great entertaining content but also informative real world experiences and reviews for these style of episodes.
I am sorry for your experience but again thank you for your support and feedback.

@@FullThrottleBHP Like you said........it is an electronic device, so there is always the chance of getting a defective one. I will return this one to Home Depot and order another. I didn't have any of the other lights on this one, so it seemed to think my batteries were okay, just as the OBDII scanner did. By the way, one of my cars is a Merc also.
@@FullThrottleBHP Update: I returned the original charger to Home Depot and ordered a new one online the same day. That charger has been hooked up to my Merc for 3 1/2 days and is still pulsing red. I used my OBDII reader battery check function today and it said my battery was good, but NOCO says that even a near dead battery would take 60 hours and it has been much longer than that. Haven't tried it on my Volvo again because Volvo doesn't give the easy access to the battery terminals like Mercedes. I had tested my battery last time and it passed the test as in good condition (less than 2 years old) Guess maybe HD got an entire batch of defective devices. Have been going back and forth with NOCO support for hours. They claim that the Genius I will not charge a Mercedes battery; only the NOCO 5, so after purchasing two NOCO Is, they say that the NOCO 1 was never made for car batteries and that "parasitic drain" would be taking too much power from the battery anyway to keep up with the charger. I happen to have along multi-decade history in automotive repair and know quite a lot about parasitic drain and have never heard so much baloney. I even told them I was aware of another Mercedes owner who successfully used the NOCO 1 and had no problems. That didn't seem to matter to them. They said it would have to be connected for up to 52 hours.......I told them it has been connected for 96. Made no difference. Ran several battery tests with my OBD II scanner, which reported the battery in good condition, as well as my charging system. They also claimed that I would have to disconnect the battery from the car and charge the battery directly with the NOCO ! for it to have any chance of charging the battery. Was just at Home Depot yesterday.......have to make another trip to return this thing.
Excellent video.

Question, so for winter storage purposes, do you just want to leave it on STANDBY MODE? Or do you want to select the voltage and let it charge
That is a great question! What I have been doing for a couple years now is leaveeverything connected and selection correct charge mode for your application. The charger will do the rest of the work for you, with out overcharging worrying a out damageto the battery. It will contoune to monitor and top off when required and shut down once the battery is full.

Can you start charging and then stop charging (while still red). I have been charging for 8 hours it is still red and I need to unplug. Can I continue charging the next day? Thx!
Sorry for the delayed reply. Yes you are completely okay to do so. Ideally you would want to have a full charge on the battery but sometimes you need it sooner. Doing so once in a while won't have sevear affects.

Super helpful video! I picked one 6 months ago on sale and will use it this week to maintain my car battery.
Question: does this have an auto-detect if my dad doesn't know what kind/size battery he has in his car?
Thanks!
Thank you for reaching out, I am glad to hear you enjoyed the episode and found it helpful. Please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing if you have not done so already. Your support is greatly appreciated. These are a great product and even better when you pick one up on sale haha.
Sadly they do not have an autodetect for the type of battery. I truly wish they did as it would be a very helpful feature to have. You would have to identify the type of battery and select the proper charge mode manually.
If your fathers vehicle has the original battery you may be able to google the make and model to identify the type of battery that it would have. This may be an easier option vs trying to get to the battery as some are very tough to locate.
I hope this helps and if you have any other questions do not hesitate to reach out.

From your newest subscriber
My friend gifted me both the NOCO Genius 1 and 10 for my SUV. I rarely drove before, (I worked 3 miles away) but since I lost my job I only drive when needed and my battery kept dying. I have a new, fully charged battery now, and asking you if the Genius 1 is sufficient to maintain my regular lead acid 12V battery? It's currently hooked up to the Genius 10 but I'm thinking the 1 should be enough to just keep the battery healthy since I so rarely drive anymore?
thanks for the explanation.. can i leave the car plugs on the battery or take them off
Thank you for reaching out. Very sorry on the delay of reply. Yes you can leave the battery connected to the vehicle while charging with the noco genius. The only time you do not want to do that is if you are using the repair mode on the charging unit. At this time you would want to disconnect the battery from the vehicle.
I hope this helps,
Thank you for your support

So my 12V regular size car battery (SC400 Lexus V8) died the other day (car sits a lot and battery is 5 years old) and had to jump it. Drove about 20 miles and hooked Noco Genius-1 up. After 48 hours still slow red blink (less than 75%). Is that normal? (battery is 5 years old). Should I give it a few more hours or just get a new battery? I saw on your chart Genius-1 takes up to 60 hours for a car battery, so I guess I should just let it continue?
I apologize on the delay of my response. From what you described it does not surprise me to hear you still had a red blinking light after 48 hours. Did you find the charger ever showed fully charged indicator light? I find even with the vehicle sitting the charger can drop from fully charged green to flashing red as the computers and electronics constantly use power. That is one down side with the Noco 1 it is only 1amp/hour so can take a very long time to charge a battery from dead or low voltage but is perfect for maintaining vehicles between drives.

@@FullThrottleBHP Thanks. It finally did get to green flashing then green solid. However, even turning on the lights makes it jump back to red and then green again. I think it's time for a new battery and then keep it maintained with the Noco. Right now I have an older Noco connected to it (which I had forgotten I had) which does 3.5 amp/h. It remains green for now.
If my car was dead from a trip would this be able to hold a charge and be able to jumpstart my car
@@likedhero2133 Thank you for reaching out, that is a great question. Sadly this unit requires a nearby plug to slowly charge or maintain your battery so it does not die (loose charge while sitting). You would require more of a booster pack or junpstarter like seen in this episode.

What does it mean when you flash green and red light rapidly
Hello, thanks for reaching out! I have not personally experienced that but from some reading on Noco website seems as it maybe showing it is in force mode. If you were not trying to activate force mode I would recomend reaching out to noco genius tech support online or calling. They should be able to help you further.
I hope this helps and I appoligize I couldn't totally resolve your question. If you enjoyed the episode please leave a thumbs up and consider subscribing.

This may be a silly question but how do I know what kind of battery do I have on my car? So i select the right button.
@@jonkino Thank you for reaching out, I hope you enjoyed the episode and if so please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing to help the channel. Your support is greatly appreciated.
That is certainly no silly question! In today's vehicles it can be difficult to know what type you may have. If your battery is easily accessible it should say on the side and top of the battery. Either AGM / lead acid/ lithium. If the battery is not easily visible another option if you know the battery is original or was replaced with original you could search your make and model on Google or give the dealership a call to find out what kind of battery was factory equiped.
Most newer vehicles are running an AGM battery due to the higher volume of electronics but is always better to know for sure to not cause any damage while using the charger.
If you have any other questions do not hesitate to reach out. Hope this helps 🙏

@@FullThrottleBHP Hi, thanks for the reply. I think your channel is great, best video about this product and I have watched them all. I gave you a thumbs up. I have another question. I looked at the battery labels and I am still no wiser. There is nothing on the labels that says what kind of battery it is. If I could send you a pic of the battery woucald you be able to tell? The other question is,. i don't have a socket set so I cannot get down to the nut that holds the battery down - frustrating. Could I charge the battery with this Noco Genius 1 that i bought without taking it out of the car? Is it safe to do so? Would I need to undo the terminals first or can I just clip on the clips somehow? There are a couple of other things that are connected to the battery that I cannot work out how to take of. Its complicated - I would have thought it would have been really simple. Is there somewhere I can send you the picture of the battery and you could advise me?
@@jonkino I appreciate your support and kind words. Certainly there is no problem just connecting the charger to the battery. No need to remove battery or terminals.
If you have Instagram you can send me the picture there at @fullthrottle.bhp or email at fullthrottle.bhp@gmail.com.
When you send the photo please let me know the year make and model as well.
Look forward to hearing from you soon,

pretty sure i have a defective charger because ive never seen green yet and i let my agm 12v battery go up into 13volts and the green light still never comes on its always red the battery is 2 months old so there nothing wrong with it i just think the charger is jank
Thanks for sharing your experience. How long did you let the charger sit for plugged into the battery? 1amp charger will take over 60 hours to charge a full size 80amp hour battery. It is possible you have a defective unit. I would suggest to reach out to Noco support for a replacement unit if you do believe there are problems.
Please keep me posted how it goes!
Thank you for your comment and support to the channel.

Is this Noco ideal if I need to have the car in accessory mode for 45-60 minutes?

Do I need to disconnect the battery terminals of the car? Or Can I connect the connectors directly to the battery with the car terminals attached?
@@Benjamin-mx7lc Thank you for reaching out! Please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing of you have not already.
You do not need to remove the battery terminals. You can safely connect the clamps to the battery while it is stil connected to the vehicle. The only time it is recomened to remove the terminals to the battery is if you are planning on using the repair mode feature.
If you have any other questions reach out anytime,

@@FullThrottleBHP i didn't know Genius 1 has repair mode feature?
@@Benjamin-mx7lc wait.. you are comepletely right. Sorry about that when I responded I was thinking of the other episode on the Noco Genius 5.. which has the repair mode. Sorry for the mix up!
I unboxed mine, plugged it in and hooked it to the battery. I had to hold the button to get it to turn on. All the LeD started flashing. I clicked the button one time to twelve volt it is now flashing red green and the white 12 volt is flashing. After a couple of minutes it turns off. It doesn't do anything if you click the button just once. Please help
Thank you for reaching out.
I have not experienced anything as you described before.. Are you charging an old fully dead battery? Or just trying to top off or maintain a good charged battery?
It almost sounds like it is kicking into force mode..
It should function as shown in the episode. Connect to terminals to battery. Plug into a 120v outlet. All lights should flash then select the charge mode. Then indicator lights should adjust as the battery voltage increases.
Do you have another battery you could test it on?
If you are having further issues I would recomend calling or emailing tech support at NOCO Genius as they should be able to quickly assist you with your problem and either resolve or send you a new product if it happens to be defective.
Sorry I couldn't be more help, please keep me updated how it goes.

Good video 👍. I just got the noco genius 1 for my motorcycle battery. The noco was highly ranked (according to a quick-ish google search). And was also highly rated on Amazon. But their included instructions were lacking. Yes it is a simple device, but I want to know what the symbols mean. (Maybe the instructions pamphlet was accidentally not included in the box 🤷♂️.) Anyways, you video filled in all the gaps. Thank you.

I have a noco 1 in the uk, it stopped working after about 12months so contacted noco to open a warranty claim it’s been extremely frustrating and slow takes several emails to get to each stage of their warranty claim process it’s been a couple of months now trying to get a replacement but I’m not giving up..
I won’t be buying any noco stuff
Thank you for reaching out. I am very sorry to hear your experience with noco has not been the best. I have been hearing from multiple people they have been receiving defective units but normally noco is very quick at resolving and having a new unit sent out right away. I personally have not had to deal with the support team or warranty claims so no first hand experience. They have a 3 year warranty so should be no issue getting a new unit for you. I would not give up either. Thank you again for sharing your experience and wish you all the best!

@@FullThrottleBHP thanks I think the main issue is being in the uk but they don’t have an official distribution base here you just have to deal with the us one..
I would like to charge a deep cycle battery while driving. I got the Noco Genius. It seems the only way to do this is to wire an inverter to my car and need to add various other devices to monitor the battery life, prevent damage etc etc. I thought I could just plug the genius into my cig lighter and charge but seems not possible as it runs off 110v
There are 12v dc to 12v dc battery chargers. Google will show you options.
It's a fine video for showing how to use the device, but it's incomplete for the "unboxing" bit. You never showed if any instructions were included in the box, or perhaps I missed that bit of your video. My NOCO Genius 1 didn't come with instructions for use. It came with a small booklet filled with the smallest print ever, in multiple languages, that described all sorts of legal disclaimers. It did state that to get Instructions, you had to scan a QR code that ultimately still didn't provide instructions. It takes you to their website advertising more products. However, no link anywhere to instructions. Try the Chat function there? Requires you to register your information in order to Chat! No guarantees it will take you to instructions, though.
what about if the battery is in the car?

If a battery is 81amp and it's fully drained, does that mean it will take 81hrs using this 1amp device?
In theory it would seem that way but passed of Noco charge times for a 80amp hour battery this charger it should take roughly 60hrs to fully charge a dead 80ah battery.

In Arizona and the deserts of California, it does not get below 104F for three months at a time in Summer. So this charger will not work!
Thanks for reaching out. One solution would be to remove the battery if you are trying to charge for one time use. If you are trying to maintain the battery between drives then you may have an issue. If your vehicle is inside a garage you would still be okay. The issue isn't this charger. I have yet to find a charger that has an operating temp rating above 104F. As a battery becomes hotter the charging efficiency severely drops and will come to a point it is doing more harm then good.
As with anything, batteries suffer from extream heat or cold and comes to a point you may need to just replace if you live in a climate with extream temp and your battery requires continuous charging.
I am glad you pointed this out as some may not consider the factor temperature has and so many do have to deal with extream heat or cold for long periods of time. Hope this helps other viewers as well, and hopefully you found the episode helpful non the less. Thank you again for reaching out and your support.

What does the white LED at the bottom mean?
Hello, Are you referring to the 4 lights at the bottom that are aligned from left to right? If so these are your charge mode indicator lights that help identify which charge mode you have selected, whether its 12v standard mode / AGM / 12v Lithium or the 6V charging mode. This selects the proper charge sequence for the type of battery you are charging or maintaining.
If is is a different light you are referring to please let me know and I will try to help. Be sure to like and subscribe as well.

OK .. girlie question. Harley battery is fine but will be sitting for awhile. I am assuming correct setting will be "standby"?
@@brendabryant60no, it has to be left in charge mode. I have a bike and a hobby car the best way to keep batteries fully charged is never let them go flat in the first place but I don't like leaving chargers on all the time so I have them plugged into a 7 day timer and only charge 4 hrs per week. Basically fully charge the battery's then top them up weekly. My bike has been parked for 12 weeks, the charger has only been on for 2 days instead of 84 and they're always fully charged. Another thing is I usually use it at weekends so I charge on Wednesday's . I also put a rag in the exhaust and air inlet to keep humidity out. Hope this is useful. 13:35

I bought this same unit from amazon a few days ago to charge up my 12V battery. It did not seem to work for me. The charge LED would flash quickly between red and green and simultaneously the white 12V icon also flashed white. After about 30 seconds, it went to "standby" mode (the orange light). No other light came on. I even rotate the mode to AGM and it did the same. Defective? Thanks for any help!
Hello! Sorry for the delay. Have you had any further luck with the charger unit? I tried to do some research but can not find much regarding the unit flashing between red and green. Other then on the previous generation chargers from noco. I wish I could be more help but I would highly recommend reaching out to the NOCO tech support ( no.co/support/search/ ) they have a direct message and live chat.

Just got mine tonight and I’m not able to switch through the modes. I have a 12V battery but the charger will only go to 6v mode and no other. If I try force mode it goes straight to standby mode
Just went back to it and got it to charge , the instructions are kind of misleading . There’s no 3 second selection time just press the mode for a second and it switches modes
Can this be left out in frozen winter weather over night?
Thank you for reaching out, I hope you enjoyed the episode.
Yes, you can leave the unit outside, I would recomend to try to have the actual unit under the hood (enginebay) or somewhat sheltered but according to NOCO the unit has a waterproof rating of IP68 and can with stand opperating temperatures down to -4F / -15C.

Hi, my car battery was dead, right now Pittsburgh is zero below, can I still charge my battery outside my garage door during daytime for 6 hours, after 6 hours, can I disconnected it and start my car, thank you 🙏
Thanks for reaching out, yes you can still charge the battery below zero. The charger will automatically adjust to the temperature to safely charge your battery. Depending on the size of the battery and voltage level 6 hours may be enough to start the car. But there is many variables.

So I just got one the other day and hooked it up to my battery I done everything that I said to do and it’s been on there for over a day now and it’s showing a solid red light on 12 volts can you explain to me what that means?
Did your battery ever charge? Thats supposed to mean the battery is taking a charge and is less than 75%. It’s really slow (1 amp) charge so can take a while, but saw another video where a gentleman stated his was faulty
Does this product charge a agm battery that has 1.5v left in the battery?
Thanks for reaching out, I hope you enjoyed the episode. If so please consider leaving a thumbs up and subscribing if you haven't already.
Yes this charger will charge an AGM battery as low as 1.5V. If the charger does not automatically detect the battery you may have to use force mode to initiate the charge cycle. But 1.5V should still auto detect. Just be sure you are on the AGM setting to safely charge and maintain your battery.
If you have any other questions be sure to let me know.

You may have to give it a higher amp shock. I used an old Sears charger with car start which jumps the amps to 75. Then I was able to repair after it said a few times that it was a bad battery. Now it's sitting at 13.5 and I can't go higher. Should be at 14.4 I'm using hulkman 1
I have agm battery and it charges mine ( takes a whe but it does the job )
Does the indicator light change color from red, orange yellow green?
If the battery is not fully charged it will pulse red once charged it will change colour to green.
Which mode for a car battery?
Thank you for reaching out. That is a tough question due to the different models of batteries used in todays vehicles. What vehicle do you have? I may be able to look up to see what battery came standard in your vehicle to help identify which charge mode is required to safely charge your battery. Another option is to look at your battery if it is easily accessible. It will state if it is a AGM / Standard etc. Please let me know and I will try to assist further.

I'm sorry to hear you were in the hospital and hope things are going better now. Regarding your vehicle it is not unheard of for the battery to drain down over 3 months especially if it's a new vehicle. Lots of modules, sensors that are constantly using power.
It is odd you are only getting a green light from the start. Is the battery fully chartered after using the charger? Any signs of a low battery?
Also did you select the proper charge mode for your style battery? It is possible the mode was incorrect causing a faulty reading /charge to the battery. This is very easy to do.
