Battery charging

[IFB19]

Hi Guys, new on here....some help please. I4 where car opens but won't start. I put her away and didn't start her for a few weeks (many weeks can't recall how many). Lotus app says battery at 11v. Because she's reversed very tight into back corner of garage getting to battery not going to be easy. Got Noco charger on another car (I know... should have thought ahead for the Emira). Is there a 12v socket in cabin that can be used to charge ?
Thanks in advance

There's a Lotus app?! Is this just an i4 thing?

On the V6 there's a socket on the back side of the armrest. I don't know if you can charge from it.

Best to fit leads to the battery for your charger.
Here's a good thread to read:

Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

Battery conditioner fitted... and it's thrown up an error Light on dash! 2nd mod fitted ;-) if you can call it that! I'm claiming it! I fitted a CTEK battery charger today . It needed M8 sized connectors to connect to the battery - which i had. I added some additional duct tape to the cable...

The Lotus Scorpion Tracker shows you the battery voltage.
You can even set it to send you an alert/email when the voltage gets too low.

Have you considered using car skates? (lift car up, pull out of garage, open trunk, access battery)
