Acceptable electric current when car is off. 850

150mils is nothing. The clock,CD player memory,radio memory etc. all draw juice when the ignition is off. A good battery can stand that type of drain for weeks. How old is your battery? Near the end of it's life? Do you drive a lot of short start and stop? Takes a good 20 to 30min of driving to fully charge a battery. Interstate seems to be the battery of choice and 4 to 5 years seems to be the life expectancy of a battery unless you really baby it.
