The battery on the TJ has finally died on me, I left it plugged in to the battery charger for 36 hours with no success. Looks like she's a goner.
Before I go out & buy another, does anyone have any tricks on reviving dead batteries? I've heard the old 'aspirin in the water trick', curious to see if anyone else has a way to bring them back from the brink.

I remember reading that the battery chargers won't attempt to charge a battery if it's too flat. Do you reckon 'jump starting' a battery before attempting another charge would work?
