What battery did you replace, in the key or under the bonnet?

I ran my battery flat replacing the blower resistor pack - the doors were open and the courtesy lights ran the battery flat. It's easily done.
Half an hour charging (I left it in place, just disconnected the battery leads) and we were back in business.
