Default Quick Battery Question - Please

Hi...

Well, my battery has died a couple of times, but I've left my lights
on all night. But today I went out, and It won't start.
I have not left any lights on, it's just dead.
The light that usually lights up before you turn the key all the
way to the right dimly blinks. All the other lights work.
I'm thinking it's finally time to get a new battery (?).
If I call triple AAA to try to start it, Should I do it today?...or
if I wait till tomorrow, will it just get harder and harder to
charge?
The last time It charged, he just barely got it to...
Just basically wondering if I can wait till tomorrow to try
and jump start.
Also, If any type of battery I should get or avoid pops into
anyones head, I'd appreciate the info as well.
Thanks!
Lindajane

Hello Lindajane - it sounds like you may need a new battery. I'm guessing when the battery was drained the first time, it hasn't been able to get a full charge after that. You're correct to assume that the longer you wait, the harder it'll be to get it started. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
