It is possible, that your battery has a bad cell or plate. When it sets, do you have it locked, with the active security system on? Previous discussions have indicated that the security system, over a long time period, can significantly drain the battery. If yours has sat for extended periods before and this time only made it 11 days, then it may well be a problem with the battery that has developed recently.

Mine sat for months over the winter and kicked right off this spring. I don't lock it, so the security system is not active and pulling anything from the battery.
