Pete, I don't know what a 960 should draw, but a 240 has a light left on if it draws 200mA. 130 sounds awfully high to me. A 240 will draw less than 1 mil except for the electric clock which ticks it to 5mA every second.

If a good car battery is 50 amp hours the best case has it lasting 16 days with a 130mA drain -- and that curve doesn't favor low drains. Can't tell you where to look, but something is staying on that shouldn't.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
