Well, I've had to abort the playing around. I've run the battery right down waiting for the car to sleep. I did not even get to the full 15mins twice before things got shutdown.

However once the battery manager has killed everything because the battery is low the current flow drops right back to almost nothing, between 0.03A and 0.09A.

I think I need a new battery, this one despite the car being used today is just not right. Halfords have a 110ah HB020 Yuasa Silver battery listed as compatible, but its £159. May just buy it anyway, so I can at least continue testing to check the alarm siren, still not got that far.
