I've not had any battery problems with my CS, but it's a daily driver & is usually left unlocked in my garage to lower power consumption. I also periodically put it on a battery charger as needed. After a recent trip leaving the car locked for about 10 days, the battery was down to about 60%.

The 993 is notorious for draining its battery when left locked for even a week. BTDT. And, the 993 doesn't go to "sleep mode" like the CS. The battery just dies. Drop by the 993 board at rennlist.com & try a search for "dead battery."
